My Wife's parents own a Time Share at the Marriott Surf Club in Aruba plus they also own Marriott Vacation Club points so they took the entire family to Aruba, 10 of us. 2nd time there with them
I just got back Tuesday morning from a weeks long stay. Good times....drank a shit ton with my brother in law, we went through 4 bottles of Vodka and 1 bottle of Malibu(Just him and I) plus drinks from the pool bar and restaurants we went to as well... ate crazy ass good food, and went out of my element and scored a J on the beach and lit it up for the first time in years. Smoked a nice Cuban Cigar which left almost zero after taste in my mouth. Spent most of the day in the Lazy River floating on a tube with a floating cooler.
Bought my wife a nice Michael Kors watch and a nice looking piece of Aluminum Jewelry Necklace she really liked.
I almost bought a 14k gold Byzantine bracelet to match the necklace I have that was my Dads but I wanted to shop around at the price and couldn't do so on the spot so I passed.
And also almost pulled the trigger on one of two different watches, A Mido Multifort and a Raymond Weil Freelancer but again...I wasn't able to research the prices better but it's very easy to negotiate down there. Usually takes 3 rounds.
Mido Multifort
Raymond Weil Freelancer Titanium
Good times though....They want bring us all back in 2018, if possible so I am looking forward another good trip and scoring something nice for myself this time
