My husband and I are travelling to Bonaire for the first time in May. Our travel agent has recommended we stay at Flamingo. Has anyone been there...what are your comments? We both love to dive but we'd like to do other activities too.

We walked through Flamingo last week-all beachside lower units and facilities are damaged/closed. Otherwise, facility looked nice; I'll defer to those who have stayed there.

My husband and I were recently in Bonaire celebrating our honeymoon and went snorkeling near Windsock one day. I was surrounded by jellyfish!! They were small in the shape of a box. There were thousands of them. I managed to free myself without harm. But it was a very disgusting outing. That was the only downside to our trip, we had such a great time and plan on returning next year.

I suggest that you read the thread entitled "The Real Divi Scoop" under the Accommodations heading. Use the "Tree View" to be able to access this. E-mail me if you want more feedback directly.

It is very unusual to have large masses of jelly fish in our waters. For the most part, they are completely harmless. For specific I D, check out Paul Humanns books or contact jcligon@bonairelive.com and Jerry will be zble to give more detailed info...

Michael, although most small jellyfish are harmless to most some people can have a reaction to the proteins they may sting with. I had a horrible reaction to harmless "thimble jellyfish" and required medical attention to stop from swelling up. My husband swam through the same swarm of jellyfish and was completely unaffected. I guess everyone needs to be cautious of all the critters in the ocean since our ancestral biology has been separated from the sea for a long time. I think most people would consider peanuts as harmless too!! Anyways just thought I would share one of my life experiences. Still looking forward to Bonaire in May!!!

Trying to plan a trip maybe to Bonaire about Apirl l9-25. Are there jellyfish in the water at that time of year? Can anyone rec. an all-inclusive resort with snorkeling off the beach.

Dear Julie Rocco and Adrianne Grafman,

I am not really familiar with Internet rules, but according to Jake's recent description of "Spamming", the multiple Harbor Village Resort postings sound just like that - in fact more than the musician's messages!

Jake has informed Jaimie about the rules about 'spamming' today. We noticed the heavy commercial tone to all the messages as well. Jaimie has responded that he now understands the rules and plans on becoming a helpful newsgroupie in the future.
