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.

Waking up with the ocean

Sometimes when getting an idea, it might seem very "smart" at the time - but when having to get up at 05.15 this morning to do a "dawn-dive" it seemed maybe not so smart...  However, submerging into the ocean from our bedroom when it was pitch dark and slowly see the the fish wake up as it was getting lighter, was a rather nice experience. Parrotfish and groupers sleeping, even our house tarpons sleeping - as we did not have the pleasure of their company. Octopus out walking, small critters being active, blennies peeking out of their holes and gradually the surface of the sea above us got lighter and we could turn our torches off. Back on the porch - a nice healthy breakfast with goood dive friends - and a loooong morning snoooze....
