Aruba is one of the ABC Islands in the Netherlands Antilles.
Her first inhabitants were Indians from South America, but today Aruba is
a multi-cultural, independently functioning part of the Kingdom of the
Netherlands. From 1924 until 1985, it was home to the Lago oil refinery
which employed most people on the island and provided foreign revenue. The small island of Aruba has plenty to offer with miles of
white beaches, a wild cunucu (countryside), and shopping malls in
the capital city of Oranjestad. Cruise ships visit so their passengers
can purchase duty-free goods at the Dutch-style buildings.
