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 in Divers Paradise!


We're now in Bonaire, arrived Saturday afternoon after running for every flight... First in Amsterdam, due to stormy weather our flight from Oslo landed 15 minutes before next take-off to Curaceao....Just made it, and to our big suprise: so did our luggage!! Next flight Curacao-Bonaire same thing, - just made it after juggling through some queues... This flight, a 10 seater (incl. pilot and co-pilot, and a fat lady in the back...) propellar plane, gave us a "different" experience arriving Bonaire this time as "locals", - the pilot explaining: "here's the safety-chart, there's a life-west under your seat and there's the emergency handle...." -and take-off! Anyway, - we made it safely across, and here we are in divers paradise again! Didn't take us long to get in the water, yesterday two dives, "Front Porch" and "Ol'Blue". Today our favourite site "Angel City" and "Tori's reef". Starting out with some pictures from yesterday while working on todays pictures in the hammock... It's great to be back seeing Esther, Menno, Erica, Bully and Usco again, - and not the least our great diving buddies Ty and Kelly!
