Just a quick check-in to let you know what a great rainy day it was here on Bonaire. We went to Knife on Klein this morning and a 9-10 ft Hammerhead Shark was very interested in the divers...especially my husband, Al, who was the first one in the water. I had a great snorkel with a turtle but didn't see the shark. Happy and sad about that. :-)

Later a pod of Pilot Whales swam by Habitat and the boats took some swimmers out. We missed that as we had gone downtown. We keep hanging out near the downtown cam and spent a lot of time at the Windsurf cam last Weds. I had my 2 1/2 yr. old grandson there with me playing in the water.

Having lots of Bonaire fun... :-) :-)

My goodness! I would LOVE to see hammerheads and pilot whales! Had no idea you could see them on Bonaire. Seasonal, maybe?

Continue to have fun!

Thanks, Timmmmy
That's us except the last one...no water wings. The third one, I believe, was a Timmmmy and Jos shot. :-) :-)
I had a big laugh that day as I was watching a young boy (13 or 14) eyeing the topless women but not wanting to be caught. He had a cute grin on his face.
It's another rainy day here...no breaks in the clouds...very unusual for this time of year. Cruise ship is in. I bailed on the morning boat but we're planning on the afternoon boat with Sherman at Toucan.
Babs, Looking forward to it! No quarantees BUT the powers that be say....lots of rays means more possibility of predators and the rays are here. :-)
