Question
Hi Andy,

I will be staying at the Divi Tamarjin for 4 nights and need to call home daily to check on my son. What would be the best phone card for me to get and what phone should I use it from. I assume if I use it from the hotel phone I will be charged high fees. Any suggestions?

I leave Sunday morning.

Thnaks so very much!

Answer
Hi Laurie! I just got back, and suffering my usual post-Aruba syndrome! http://www.arubafastphones.com/  Go to this site, and the rates are very good. Lots of visitors use Charles' service! You can pick up the phone as you exit the airport, and return it when you leave. (very convenient!) Also, if you do not want to rent for the 4 days, go to the Alhambra Bazzar, which a shuttle will pick you up at the Tam to bring you to the casino, and there is a internet/call USA phone building in the complex. Its about a 10 minute walk if you elect that. This place is open from 4pm to 11pm. If there is anything else, contact me !!  Have a great trip!  
PS: I love Boston!!!  I am in Connecticut, and visit there often!
