Michael Gaynor at Chat n Browse is defintely the way to go!!!!! Stopped by (just North of the round-about) several times on the way to/from dive sites, made a quick call to my sweetie and was on my way. Still had plenty of money for ice cream next door from a $5!

Thanks! If it wasn't for them, may not have been able to afford my airport tax!

Hi Joseph, Its great to see we have a Indiana Hoosier that like Bonaire. We are from Bluffton, In. Which is south of Ft. Wayne. We just went thru Indy last weekend and went to Brown County for the weekend. Thanks for the info on calling home. We are going in Feb. for our first time. Been to Aruba 6 times but never to Bonaire. Kent Gerber

Indiana Divers,
http://www.francepark.com/scuba.htm Have you been to France Park diving? Not very deep but alot of stuff to see. Nice camp sites with diveshop at the quarry. Lots to do if your not divers as well... Ron

Ron, I don't dive. Just snorkle. I guess I'm just a wimp. I guess I have a real expensive hobby that really cuts into the pocket book. I go to Ft. Myers beach in Florida every Nov. and Dec. I go out deep sea fishing everyday that its fit for them 2 months. So when I get to Aruba and Bonaire for 3 weeks in Feb. Guess what? I AM FLAT BROKE. So snorkling is alot cheaper than diving and my wife will have no part in diving so we compermise and snorkle and hang out in the crystal clear blue sea. Kent Gerber

Kent, If you enjoy snorkeling then falling into diving would be easy for both of you. Ounce you buy the basics for diving it is cheap compared to most sports. To have the freedom to go down just a little closer to what you are looking at is the reward for diving. You don't have to go deep, and then remember, you don't have to hold your breath. Next time you go to Bonaire try Discover SCUBA. All the operators offer that course. A little pool training and to the sea at 30 fsw for your dive. It is a blast... Ron

Ron, Kent already has an expensive hobby - deep sea fishing, two months a year. He also still has a wife, and if he took up another expensive hobby that she did not share, he might end up with no expensive hobbies or wife. So they snorkel and have a Gerber good time staying married.

Kent, It's your loss.....

Seb, Thanks for your explanation Uncle Seb! But if you read my post--If you enjoy snorkeling then falling into diving would be easy for both of you.
