The roads were a "bit precarious" at times, even this photo does not do justice to the angles and rocks that we climbed in our Wrangler. Arubans recommended Jeep Wranglers, not just any 4WD vehicle. It was quite humorous to drive by all of the people in Suzuki Samurais, and the like, who had to quickly give up or get stuck on the dunes or on rocky terrain.
(Full disclosure: I own a Jeep myself)

Mary was able to earn some extra money for the roulette table working as an iguana crossing guard.
