Day Two has dawned, can you believe how many crazies are up at this hour !! Ok, so I am up too. In this home of “Diver’s Freedom” there are those that desire to say what you can say, where to dive, how to dive, what to wear (or not wear), what wattage dive light, dive tool size does count and how to enter the water. (I usually fall, not graceful but effective.) If ya dive north, take more tanks it’s deeper there; dive south, take more Amstel cuz there is way more to watch. Protect yourself against theft…. yep, don’t leave your camera on the seat, or your designer shades on dash or if you must, make sure the windows are down to save on your deductible. Crime is on the rise, hell it has been since Capt’ Don dropped anchor and the best places to stay seems to be determined by creature comforts not the quality of the reef and friendliness of the dive staff. Should I move to Bonaire…. Aye there be the question we all ask of our selves. Rare be the person that can stay…but each and every one is very special character..

BUT !!!!

That being said, this, my retirement from retirement has brought forth dear friends long hidden. So I will rejoin this unruly mob, for I had forgotten one thing, you are all lovers and supporters of Bonaire !! therefore you can’t be wrong.

We're all on the same ship's journey, Kelly!

Hi, Barry! My buddy is still in Lombok....appearance #4 next week before the "officials"....ugly stuff. Hope his retirement improves soon for him. Hope his properties on Bali are intact and still belong to him...heard horror stories about how outsiders can "lose" properties they have purchased, etc. Geesh. Happy retirement, Joe!

Kelly...sounds like your retirement is going nicely! Ayo. Carole

When was the last time you were on Bonaire? The wedding?

Freddie, I don't think so, Kelly's talking about Bonaire, and his upcoming trip, I think it's OK in EE:-) That's just my MO:-)

Oh I thought he was talking about BTers that rush to the webcams every morning {Oh that was the other thread} I think the chatter that follows his posts is what I am talking about.JMHO.. we know that some of the users from long ago just don't want to get classified as CC users and I think, of course I may be wrong , BUT I think that Kelly may be one of them What say Kelly???

I wasn't serious, of course, after Freddie moved Kelly's "Crimes of Passion" to "Chat" as well. I don't have to add "LOL" or a smiley when I make a joke, do I?

Hi Kelly

We just checked in to Don's at 4:30 am on Sunday after 30 hours travelling. So only two dives so far and fantastic juvenile fish are about. Just out front by the blocks we found two French Angels one 3/4 inch and on 1/3 inch, little cherub fish and juvenile butterfly fish.

May be we will bump into you at the bar.

Cynde do you have the right Kelly in mind?
