You will like Harbour Village, I have had a good look around the property and it is very nice. Nick Davies is the Hotel manager and another Brit well welsh actually; he is very helpful nickdavies@harbourvillage.com make sure he knows it is a special trip.

Wow, thanks for all the advice, seriously appreciated. One of the reasons I can't wait to get to Bonaire is just how nice everyone who likes going there/lives there appears to be!

Just a note on the phone: I have a tri-band Nokia (unlocked) that came from the UK, and it worked fine in Bonaire -- I got a SIM card for it with a local number. You can get them from Telbo or in a pinch Michael at Chat N Browse might have one. The 50 NAF card came with 20NAF credit, and you can just get additional cards for more usage.

Hi, Charles ! I always love your posts. They certainly echo the aura you project... laid back, friendly, and relaxed.

ANDREW, if it starts to get a little tight on the budget, my wife and i love cazolli's pizza, may not be spelled right, but it's across from karel's bar, may not be spelled right either, great pizza, fun to watch the locals, especially on friday night, seems they gather there a lot, about same price as pizza at home

Sorry to say, but Cozzoli's closed back in March.

Thank you all for your kind congratulations and comments, what a bunch of lovely people! This is why I can't wait to come to Bonaire!

Good coffee ain't gonna make enough to pay the rent....

DANGNABIT......really liked their pizza.....guess i'll have to observe the locals from the other side of the street amongst the temptations of an amstel brite

Tell that to Starbucks Ruth. I just didn't know if they didn't get enough business, or if there were other reasons, like they moved.

Ruth, was Cozzoli's the place where they squeezed huge fresh fruit juices? The place with mosaic tables on the terrace? If that's Cozzoli's, I'm heartbroken, because by special request they used to make the most fabulous fruit salads for me every lunch - delicious papayas, mangoes and other tropical fruit, and it wasn't even on the menu. What am I gonna do on my next visit?

Sounds like it-Cozzoli's was opposite KFC. If it's any consolation, we sell green salads. You might be able to get fruit salads at ZeeZicht (north side of Cozzoli's) or down further at City Cafe or the Crepe place, assuming you want to stay sea-side.

Thanks Ruth. No wonder they went out of business, they only charged something like three dollars for my massive, chunky fruit salad. Thanks for the suggestions. I'll give them a try them on my next trip to Bon.
