Still discussing and debating, ugh ?
Well folks, I think I'm gonna leave you now and watch one of my favorite movie which is, to keep in the topic " BLUES Brothers ".
Barb, are you taking over and count the votes ?
Igor, we can have the final updating tomorrow morning while haring the morning coffee :o)
Goodnight gang, thanks to you, it has been a pretty nice day!

I will consider your opinion.

Oh, my, take over the votes, Martine? That will take a while, but I will try. I think Igor said he would reconsider for harmony a thread or two ago and Jos said he'd vote for Blue (I think it's now officially "Indigo", "Indy" for short) if you'd let him have your cam cleaning trip! So are we settled? (I think Martine would particularly like Indy as her favorite actor would come to mind!! LOL)

And, because Igor is being so courteous now (and for keeping us laughing all day) we should assign him the next fish to name...have to check the reef cam dwellers page to see who's left. As I recall, the naming was postponed after much controversy when Martine and I tried to name the ray a few months back......!!!! :-)

Barbara,
Jos put his vote on Indigo in the last thread (be4 that he did mention considering taking a bribe :-) ).
I'm considering voting 4 Indigo, because it's a new name (not a successor of Ol' Blue) and it might save the BT-community from falling apart :-)

Well, now that you mention it Jos...hmmm???? Maybe we will need a group vote on that? But how many threads would it take? :-)
I think in all of this controversy we have been rude and missed our guests at the gate...Hello, the cam is over here!!

Ok, Jos is here... he knows best what he wants 2 vote :-)

Maybe, just maybe, Ms. Piggy is a suitable name 4 the Scrawled Filefish, but I'm still not sure about the name 4 bluetang...

Hello everyone. We are back. Cindy thanks for hosting such a wonderful party. Next year we'll get wild again.

We were delayed due to the volcano in Montserrat. The ash cancelled flights in San Juan. We finally got back last night. American Airlines put us up in San Juan for the night. It was great. Now I have serious PBD. To those of you I met, it was great and hope to see you again. I met Lynn and David from Houston who are BTers. They didn't get to come to the party. They didn't arrive in time.

Hi gang,
another dutchie is back. And for what Igor mentioned before: we are used to a so-called 'polder model' and Indy (Indigo)... well I can live with that too

Although, Piggy was not a real bad name.

Hi Terri & welcome back!
I'm afraid your PBD will only get worse in the first weeks... so be prepared! :-)

Terri, yes, PBD BAD! Sorry about your flight. We got the tail end of Claudette in San Juan, and had one rough landing and take-off...the worst I have ever experienced. Was that a volcano in San Juan? There was one on St. Thomas that erupted last weekend, and they had closed the St. Thomas airport on Sunday.

Ok, on topic:-) Speedboat...it was funny (or not so had Kelly and I been in the water, or a snorkeler), one morning Kelly and I were having breakfast on the "veranda" overlooking small wall and 2 boats were RACING toward small wall. One was in the "light blue" water area (very scary) and reached the far right mooring first...thus the other boat had to use Jake and Linda's. We were shocked at how fast they were going, especially in the blue water, and wondered if one was trying to get to the "approved" mooring first..."message to boat operators: SLOW DOWN!"

Soooo. we have settled on Indy (Indigo for long)? Cynde, it is so much quieter at the gate with no games, hats and thongs. Guess that's why we had to resume the name game for excitement! Nice sunset coming!

Hi again all. Yes I believe you can have PBD before going to Bonaire, but it would simply be Pre Bonaire Depression.

Cynde. Volcano was in Montseratt (sp?) but the ash made it's way to San Juan. We didn't give Jake a ride after all. We got at the airport at 3:00 am but the plane didn't leave until 9:30 a.m. Jake was the only one on the island that seemed to be wise to the situation so he was confident enough to sleep in. Ralph saw him make a last minute mad dash, but I missed him.

Hi Barbara,
LaDonna, we also have a 'shared-PBD' syndrome.
Especially, now that no-one is entertaining us in front of the cams.
And that's indeed why we did need some name game.

And I think we finally have settled, we have to wait for some morning-coffee drinkers. But it's close!

And again, I missed all the divers-action during my way back to home and eating dinner.
nothing

See, empty!! But still not clean

Hi Diana.
I'm still not sure about the name (I don't want 2 give in 2 soon) :-)
We'll see in the morning, when Martine offers us coffee.

And of course, Piggy is still a good name.
But we wait

Gosh! I missed so much today on the Webcams thread. However, I tried to keep up with the CC thread and a few others.

I really like "Indigo."

Martine, Thanks for giving the advice about which finger to clean the cam with! Did we meet at Gibi's 3 weeks ago? I don't remember. We were the ones that came in late....Jake picked us up at the airport. I think we did meet, briefly.
