Bonaire

Bonaire
BREAKING NEWS:
The Scubadooby creature has been off course once before, and this year there are signs of proof that this might happen again... Not so much off course though, still along the golf stream the creature has drifted to the Bahamas!
The creature seem to be more and more dependent on water, moving down from the hills to the beach in Bonaire last year, the creature now actually will rest ON the water when surfacing from the deep. It has become rather sociable and will be spending time on a sailboat with very goood friends and UW-creatures whenever up to dry up. Since this implies less WIFI connectivity, time will show if the Scubadooby are able to transmit signals to the rest of the world. The creature is still closely attached to new friend Precious, and hopefylly this symbiosis will result in images of the UW-scenery for landlocked creatures to enjoy - stay tuned :)

The Bahamas is an archipelagic state consisting of more than 700 islands, cays and islets in the Atlantic and is located southeast of Florida, north of Cuba and Haiti and northwest of the Turks and Caicos.

Bonaire er den minste av ABC-øyene (Aruba, Bonaire, Curaceau) - sør i Karibien ca 80 km nord for Venezuela. Bortsett fra et fantastisk korallrev og dykking i verdensklasse, er det ikke noe særlig annet å se eller ta seg til... en relativ flat, tørr og liten øy med masse kaktus og kun noen få sandstrender, altså det perfekte sted å senke skuldrene og ta det piano et par uker.

Finally - not keeping heads above water anymore :)

Scoobadooby is on the island! After meeting up with dive buddies and fellow Goood Dive groupies Ty, Kelly, Be and Jolanda saturday night, our gills started to scream for oxygenrich water and earcanals for a good saltwater rinse. Early rise sunday morning and heading for the blue waters of Bonaire - the creature finally got into the wetsuits and got the flippers properly soaked in salt water. Mmmmmm.. :)
Taking some time to get used to the camera and flashsetting etc., but the capture of the day was at least a couple of ok photos. An easy start at Front Porch, then after some equipment adjustments finished the day off with an afternoon dive and a beautiful sunset at Jeff Davies memorial.
Catch of the day: A few critters, shrimps (banded coral shrimp ++), moray eels and other eels, turtles,  a couple of spotted drummers, curled up basket stars, flounders and more - an enjoyable day finished off with home cooked dinner at our home away from home - Goood Resort (- or for us always;: Deep Blue View).
