I've been to Aruba twice since the whole Natalie Holloway case started and I have never once felt like I wasn't safe in Aruba. I've even been to the same bars she was in and still felt safe. Aruba gets a bad rap for an unfortunate occurance that happened once there, that happens all the time here in the states and everywhere else.
