Good morning. Carole, for you, a new thread and a few more shots from our recent two week visit to our favourite island.

Enjoy ... Cindy

Great stuff, Cindy! Makes you wonder what "they" think of us as we are taking their pictures. Really enjoyable..thanks so much for posting them and for starting the new thread, too...much easier to open up today. Can't wait to get back down to Bonaire in May.....Carole

Can I come with you, pretty please?! I'm housebound again because of the cold and ice we received in the last two days - YUK !!!

We have up to one foot on the way to Northern NJ tomorrow, Monday, too. ENUFF! I will just keep looking at Cindy's nice photos and not think of the havoc this late snow will cause around this area. Heavy wet snow, too, they say. Most of the plows are probably "resting" already and have been converted to landscaping and garbage detail with it being Spring, and all.....Carole

Thanks for posting your pics Cindy. I have really enjoyed them.

You're most welcome Sue. It's been fun.

Great photos! I really like the cute pic of the porcupine fish!

Love the color on the head of the Black Durgon..nice catch..thanks for sharing the photos..we have same camera

Thanks Debbi. I must tell you that they are one of the toughest characters to catch up with by far. I took a lot of shots to get a couple of good ones. And that is my favourite.

Have missed playing with the pictures in the past few days so I'm back at it. Actually, it probably has more to do with missing Bonaire if the truth be known :-(

So here are are few more ...

a good batch of pictures will keep you distracted...oh, say about 3 months max...then you gotta go back for another batch;

"preserve the memories"...i never would have imagined;)

(educational as well)

nice pics!

Thanks for the "fix", Cindy! It is cold and rainy and dreary here in NJ and this helped out a lot. Beautiful shots.....can't wait to be there....43 days? Soon, Biff, soon...Carole

Hi Marcella and everyone.

It's been a couple of weeks since I played with my pictures from our March trip. So here are a few that are primarily surface type shots ... a little different perspective. Hope you enjoy ... Cindy

Bummin'! I can't get the photos...! Please try again? Wonder if they are just too big?

Can you see them now? I was messing up here but I think they're all there now (eight of them).

Beautiful and very, very neat shots, Cindylou! Keep 'em comin'! We can take it if you can swing it. Nice product from the camera, for sure. Carole

It's a slow cam day, dreary here at home (and me with a migraine). So I'm putting up a few more shots from our March '03 trip. Enjoy ... Cindy

Cindylou, Thanx for these wonderful pic's. I can't wait, only 4 weeks and of we go.....

are we STILL having fun?

;)

are we thinking a strobe and a return trip to bonaire???

nice pics;)

cindy, great pics! oil slick leap...when we were there in sept of 2002 the old ladder was still there. we walked up to the site, looked at the ladder and messed with it a bit, as half of it was gone and what was left was really rusty. we figured, ok, should be strong enough to get out on...then to decide just WHERE to do the giant stride in...hmmm...here?...no, how bout over there...well, we really have no idea what is below the surf, so we figured if the first person made it in, we would be ok...made it in fine, and out fine, but getting out was pretty funny on that ladder!

Cynde ... this is the ladder that's there now.

Hi Bob. Well, there will be more return trips to Bonaire for sure. Next one will be #8. As for the strobe, I'll be investigating some solution before the next trip. I've definitely caught the bug!

Cindylou,
Thanks for posting all the awesome shots!!!
