She'll be 27 in December. I'll be 28.
Mauai would be great, she's been there before, and neither of us have been to Aruba.
I'm with whoever says "who cares what others think?"

dude,
how old is your gf??aruba is a great place with very nice people. the media totally portrait it in a very negative way.
she needs to start thinking for herself and stop worrying about what others will say.
- mg330
OMG, it continues. I'm not harping on my girlfriend, but she's told me that her main reason against going is what other people will think of her for going. Coworkers and such.
Who cares.
I've passed along all your points. It's not that I wouldn't mind going to Maui, never been there either. However, if we decide against Aruba, it has to be for the right reasons, and not propaganda and worrying about what other people think.

Bottomline: Have a good time and enjoy. Forget all else.

Much thanks for your responses. :)
Good info, good thoughts.

You should go, but don't be entirely reckless either.

very interesting mg33..of course you already know what to do though.
GO TO ARUBA.
My dad worked as a consultant there for a year and a half recently in 2003 and I was able to visit him there once. As you already pointed out, it's no less safe then any major city here in America. People were friendly, and I had an amazing time. Make sure you hit the festival / parade when you go as well as taking a jeep out on the island ;)
Whatever you do though, for the love of god please don't give in to the fear that people on TV want you to believe. Your GF's sister sounds like one of 'those'. I'm willing to be she's lived in the same town for nearly her whole life, too.
*rolls eyes*
Have fun whatever you decide!

go to aruba, the island needs all the tourists it can get. like someone said before, if there's one person i wouldn't want to make a dicision about my holiday, it's dr phil....
- JazX0
Dr. Phil should have no bearing on where you plan to vacation. I've travelled enough to know that isolated instances such as that case doesn't mean an entire country should be blamed for it.
That kinda' stuff happens all over, it just received notoriety based upon the fact that she was a young, cute, Caucasian
American girl. You think it would have been blown out like that if she were African American and from the ghetto?Just my opinion...
