We were in Bonaire from July 13-20 and had a total blast -- a great trip! This was the second trip there for me and my husband, but the first trip for our friends Matt and Joe (brothers).

Oh, one other thing -- if you do look at the pictures you'll see a couple of ones of a little smurf toy. This is part of a gps game that I play called "geo-caching" -- like a treasure-hunt game. There are several caches on the island... If you're interested in learning more, let me know or check out the Geocaching Web Site.

Mary, great trip report! We stayed at the Belmar for the first time on our last trip, and you're right, it is fabulous isn't it! Great photos...I'm hoping that your friend did not get bit by that iguana...they do bite you know! Did you check out the resident iguanas at Belmar? they hang on the wall all day

Mary! You guys were in the Park the same morning that we were. It seemed that we were the only ones around for miles. And we were back in the water by 2 as well. Glad you enjoyed your trip!

Mary, thanks for the report and the great photos. Aqualung should buy your mask, fins and snorkel photo for advertising purposes.

Thanks for the nice responses, everyone! Just reading everyone's friendly replies underscores my need to go back -- for a lot longer than a week next time! Okay, so I'm 40 now, how long to retirement?

Mary, nice pics. Sorry about your camera, but I look at it as a chance to upgrade. I love the smurf. I took a travel bug named Diver Down! diving in Bonaire last Christmas Day. There are a few pictures at the link. The one with the French angel is not a trick, it really swam into the frame as I was backing up from placing the slate.

Thanks for the nice comments Debbie and Mark! Mark, I had noticed your picture of the TB on the geocache site -- nice! I love the angel fish pic.
