Aruba is situated in the Southern Caribbean, only 18 miles off the coast of Venezuela. The island is 19.6 miles long and 6 miles at its widest and encom- passes 70 square miles. 'Aruba has a population of approximately 64,400 of Dutch Nationality. The currency is the Aruban Florin. Most Arubans have an aptitude for languages and speak several including Dutch, English, Spanish and Papiamento (an assortment of languages combined into one). The capital is Oranjestad. The climate of Aruba is almost near perfect being dry and sunny with an average temperature of 27 degrees Celsius (81 F) and averaging 10 inches of rain per year, which occur in short dura- tions during the months of October, November and December. If you're worried about hurricanes...no need as Aruba is completely outside the Hurricane Belt. Getting to Aruba is easy. Cruise ships include Aruba in their itinerarics serving the Caribbean, or you can fly from Toronto via Miami on Air Canada connecting on ALM's daily flights to Aruba and from Montreal to Miami on Air Canada or Delta connecting on ALM's daily flights to Aruba. . In addition to scheduled air service Aruba is served by a wide range of tour whole-salers such as Fiesta and Carousel. Have I aroused your curiosity? Aruba is a very affordable island and as you have read offers a lit- tle of something for everyone. I now have brochures offering Aruba for one-weck or two-week vacations and if you would like more information on Aruba you can write: Aruba Tourism Authority/Canada 1801 Eglington Ave. West Suite 109 Toronto, Ontario M6E 2H8 Or phone 1-416-782-9954. When you buy anything on vacation, ask for a receipt. Also, inquire about any value added tax (VAT) refunds that may be avail- able. Some countries will refund the local tax because you are tak- ing goods out of the country and in some cases this can amount to 15 to 20 per cent of the purchase price. This benefit must often be requested and is well worth the time it might take to fill out the necessary forms...we tried it in Austria and West Germany and reccived a nice refund and sav- ings on our purchases. Find out if Bargaining is appropriate and if it is go for it! It's fun and a lot of times the shopkeeper expects it. If this doesn't appeal to you, stick to the department stores. Beware of the fakes and imita- tions. Designer or brand names may be forged or stitched on to simulations of the original prod- uct. When purchasing shoes or clothes in another country remember to make sure you have the correct sizes, especially for gifts, as many countries have dif- ferent size charts. Most important of all is don't flash large amounts of cash around when purchasing items, especially in poorer countries as you are just inviting trouble. Carrying small amounts of cash or traveler cheques are your best bet and above all have a great time as shopping on vaca- tion is a major part of your vaca- tion.
