To be honest KOP, I was at work when my wife told me she has a surprise. I roughly knew what it was as I was telling her for for couple of weeks that I am craving for another holiday. However, that it turned out Aruba that wasn't expected. She hasn't booked a package. We are going for 14 days pure heaven. Best months to go is actually any time as it's the best Caribbean island. It's the least rainy island it has 3 rainy days a month which is nothing as the rain is like a hot shower. Just make sure you are going out of hurricane season that's all.
I just can recommend carribean islands , once you taste them you won't to see all of them. If you need anymore infos let me know

Where have you been?

Kind Regards,
Ron
 
We nipped off to paphos in cyprus for a week ron , will have another week in the winter somwhere cheers kop.

That's great spot though. I should go there to one day. What's Cyprus like any good ? How did you find it ? Is that expensive over there? What about the trips, did you with your partner on any trips?
 
Been there 4 times bud so have seen most of the major sites , been up in the trudos mountains freezing up there but worth going , jeep safari , various boat trips , turtle watching , sunset cruise , plenty of watersports to do if that your thing , mrs booked it in january online with Tompsons , prices are aboutv the same as here car hire is cheap though ÂŁ20a day for a small car . cheers kop

KOP you should go one day to any of the carribean islands it is heaven trust me. I have been this year to St Lucia and I cannot recomm me it enough. It is such a great vibe over there and food it's incredible.
 
Been to Mexico and the Dominican Republic nice but the 10 hour flight puts me off , formentera is my favorite destination , 2 hours 40 minutes flight , then high speed ferry to the island , totally chilled out place will be back there next year . Cheers kop

Oh..so that's where the paddle board was invented.

Beautiful locations, beautiful beaches, beautiful weather.......not a wave in sight.

Might of been the original place where sailboards and wind surfers were invented, but there's no wind.

Evolution in progress.

What was the fishing like?

I might sound cynical, but we're in the middle of winter.
Those pics make me want to go somewhere sunny - albeit with a wave.
