Ok, figured I better get October going...if you are going in October, just put your name(s), place you will be staying and the dates (Me doing this does NOT help PBD any at all, just thought I would let you know that!)

My husband and I and some friends will be there Oct 11-18! We cant wait!

Oh I forgot, we will be staying at Eden Beach!

Peter, Liesbeth and Martin staying at the Deep Blue View from October 22 till November 3.

We'll be at the Divi timeshare Sept. 27 - Oct. 8.

My wife and I, along with 6 others, will be there from Oct 15 through Oct 22.

Hubby and I will be there with fins on October 24 - Nov 4. We are staying at the Windsock Bonaire. This is our first trip to Bonaire and we're really looking forward to it. This message board has been so helpful in making our plans. Thanks everyone.

My daughter Erinn and I will be at Divers Paradise with Ed and Laurie Yates from 29 October until 5 November.

Cynde
We are all excited.. and are already packing our dive gear. I understand that our real problem will be the PBD.. and the need to arrange another trip REAL soon ;-)
Jim

I'm very sorry to say this but Bob and I will be back at Lions Dive 25th October to 1st November. I know we just got back but we might not make it next year so we thought we had better make the most of this year!

Julia, rub it in why don't cha! Hey, how was the trip???? I'll add you to the list

Jim, you are correct, PBD is bad when you get back!

Hello! My husband and I will be arriving October 8...returning October 21. I am curious about what I might need for snorkeling (besides fins, mask, etc. which I have)...I know I will super sunscreen as I have fair skin & freckles...anything else you advise me to do/to bring as I am a novice at snorkeling...hubby does the scuba diving.

We are staying at Coco Palm Garden...are there gatherings during 10/8-21 that we can join??

Thanks so much for any/all advise!

Linda

Therese and I will be staying at the Divi Flamingo Oct 4th - 11th. My fifth time on-island, her first. Planning to race in the Regatta a couple of days and dive every other moment!

Steven

Hello Cynde et al ...

We'll be arriving Oct 22 and leaving Oct 29 - staying at Sun Oceanfront - as physical therapists, we've decided that diving is really really good for the spine and brain and heart. Dove for 45 years but never in Bonarian waters. Look forward to meeting the good people of Bonaire - esp folkz like Bruce Bowker, Cap'n Don and the people of BT. Can't wait...

Steven and Therese, Bill and Donna, you have been added! Bill and Donna, you will fall in love with the Bonairian waters! Have a great time

Cynde and Friends at BT - Since we are coming in on a Wed and leaving the next Wed, it seems a shame that we won't meet you until the Tues night get-together just before we leave. Is there any other opportunity to hang out with some BTers?

Cynde's in California. You might try looking at the October BT list Cynde made and contacting some of the folks who will be on-island around the same time.
