We had another great visit to Bonaire over Christmas-New Years and though I’m a bit late posting these shots, I thought you might be interested to see them. Again, we stayed at the Belmar and loved it. I am an avid windsurfer and diver, and if there is a place on the planet that could outdo Bonaire for those twin pursuits, I would love to know it! When the wind was down we dove 3 to 4 times a day, and when it was up once or twice. We could not have been happier!

Sorry gang, I had to leave the site and the message was accidently sent sans pictures. Here they are with a repeat of descriptions.

Looks like one of those group of tarpon you see hanging out in the cargo holds of the Hilma Hooker...

Many thanks for your kind comments. Carol, Fiona is right. It is a tarpon hanging out at the stern of the Hilma Hooker, but because of it's size--I think you can get a sense of it from the scale of the small fish beside it and the hull of the wreck--there was that moment of "could it be..." as it slowly came into view as a silhouette from the crest of the reef.
