I've had a great trip, so much so that i downloaded all my pics before putting the washing machine on. Wife not happy.
Eighteen dives in six days, all good in different ways, except the one we aborted at white slave when the storm came in and he current was so strong we couldn't fin against it!!
Best dive of the week, red slave, eagle rays, sting rays turtles.
Really recommend Larry's wildside diving. The schools of tarpon in the white hole have to be seen to be believed!!

ok, i worked it out, hope people like my pics, i'm pretty pleased with some of them.

this was our third trip to bonaire, and defintitly the best one!! it helps that we are now better divers and better photographers!!

did some new dives this time, and really pleased that we did. Red slave was just awesome, if you haven't ever done it, do it if you get the weather!!
dived the 'new' wreck, "our confidence" outside the harbour resort. only problem was they wanted $20pp to do it. Therefore we kitted up at free beach next to eden beach, snorkelled past eden, then decended and swan along at the right depth till we got there. it's not the $20 i begrudged but the attitude!!

didn't have the nerve to drift from la dania's to karpata!! mainly due to being worried about missing the exit at karpata. Oh well i now have to make sure i make another trip soon!!
so many stories.........
