Photo Contest – February 19, 2016
Only five people out of a total of 22 responses correctly identified the location of the photo submitted by Joe Baum. The winner of the drawing is Paul Crager of Philadelphia, PA who will receive a $25 gift card. The photo is of a restaurant called Eetcafe The Paddock located in Aruba. While we’ve never eaten there and cannot give an opinion of the restaurant, we highly recommend Aruba, the “A” in the ABC islands. You’ll find picturesque beaches (Eagle Beach is very wide with fine powdery sand), friendly people and great shopping in this Dutch island. You can visit in the fall since hurricanes are rare this far south in the Caribbean. You are less than 20 miles from South America when in Aruba.
We have included several other great photos taken by Joe on his visit to Aruba. We especially like the one of Hooiberg mountain, the major landmark of Aruba. Natural Bridge was another landmark until it collapsed in 2005.
