Chet ... Thanks so much for being the "keeper of the list". Mark and I are really looking forward to meeting everyone next month. Chatted with Diver Debbi this weekend before she left our cold and snowy homestate for Bonaire. I have been thinking of her all day today as she makes her way there!

I had read somewhere on the board to meet at Gibis on Tuesday nights...will this happen every Tue night in Feb?

Yes, it will. If no one else turns up, I'll be there!!! Very much looking forward to seeing who's there on February 4. 7pm meeting time. Or, of course, whenever you get there!

Hi Josie...We will come on Feb. 4th...also had an email from Marie Snow and she is planning on coming. I looked at your photo on your profile page...so hopefully we can "find" each other!

Martin Beck? There is a Broadway theater with the same name in NYC, at least until next June when they rename it.
|
By Martin (New BonaireTalk Poster - Post #5) on Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 11:45 am: |
Actually it's Martin Beckman. I probably need to add my last name to my username here to avoid confusion.

Lisa, you can't see it in the profile pic, but I have short brown (with grey!) hair, and glasses. And Alan has quite grey hair, also with glasses. I'm 5'2", he's 6 ft.

Can't wait!! Bob and I look about the same as the photo on our profile page...twins are 2 years older then that photo...don't let the twin thing fool you as they now don't look anything alike..but we they will be with us...guess I should have asked..what is Gibi's? a restaurant or bar? Do they allow children?

Lisa, Are you flying AJ or AA on the 1st
|
By Marie Snow (New BonaireTalk Poster - Post #3) on Thursday, January 30, 2003 - 2:55 pm: |
Josie, Lise, I can't wait to meet both of you. This is our first trip to Bonaire although I'm sure not our last. What type of place is Gibi's? Guess I better go now> We leave in 17 hours, but who's counting?

That sounds tempting... We will be there (at least in our minds...)
|
By Lise Dews (BonaireTalker - Post #58) on Thursday, January 30, 2003 - 4:28 pm: |
We are flying AJ out of Atlanta on the 1st. Anyone else on that flight or the one out of MBJ? Jake..just wondering...what is the "Tom Cousino's shindig"?

He posted a note around here somewhere that his dive group was having a small party at Bongo's (at Eden Beach) on Feb. 11th at 6pm.

Mary Lou ... we rented Kas di Ambiente last year and really enjoyed it! Have fun! We are leaving Bonaire the day you arrive so will not be able to swap stories.

Am working on the next update of the Feb/Mar list, probably to be posted tomorrow.

By Jake Richter (Moderator - Post #3796) on Friday, January 31, 2003 - 8:46 am: |
Tom - can you or someone else coming down shortly see if you can find a USB-based digital film "multi-reader" which supports Memory Sticks, CompactFlash, SmartMedia, and whatever else is out there for digital cameras? Dazzle has one, as does Delkin - Best Buy would probably carry these. Should be about $50 - Michael Gaynor needs at least one for the new Chat 'n Browse store he just opened next to Sand Dollar Grocery (he's offering Internet access, cell phone rentals, digital camera rentals, and also sells local art, including that of my lovely wife :-) )

Getting close to gloating, too: we leave 2 weeks from today! We do spend one night in Miami so arrive Bonaire on Sat 2/15. "My" group of 6 will be staying at Casa Cia, the blue house on EEG Blvd south of the airport heading toward the BelMar - I think it is #20.

Hi Chet - Hi All! popping over from the webcam chat to give you our dates and start seeing what's happening!

By Susan Taft (BonaireTalker - Post #92) on Friday, January 31, 2003 - 10:07 pm: |
Hey Ginny ... guess two weeks is within gloating range (that means that in one week I can start to gloat!) Will you be at Gibi's on Feb 25? Mark and I are taking our first trip to Colorado this summer (our first land-locked vacation in a long time) and would love to get some insider tips!

Hilary, did you get the arrangements with Marvel? We had almost a daily contact the last week in order to get our paperwork done, but it has been done, and now, just wait for a few months and then it's hello married live!

Lydia, Gibi's on Tuesday evenings is an open invitation for every Tuesday during Feb/March (and could certainly continue year-round if people just keep showing-up).
