It took a long time to pedal all the way from my new house (and I'm not even sweating :-) Somebody pass the Amstel!

Starting 2004 with a virtual dive!

That must be one heck of a virtual tank, too, Dara! Very clever!! Happy New Year to you and have fun at the "BBQ" (virtual, for you, of course) today. Carole

Dara...another good thing...it's all "virtual" calories, too!! LOL.

Is that rain I see this morning at the webcams?? Hope it clears up for the BBQ at Jake and Linda's place, today, everyone. Have a great time!! Carole

Good morning Dara and Carole,
HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL! Now, it should be 2004 everywhere in the world :o)
Guess what ? It's snowing in Paris !
I wish the weather improves on Bonaire, pity to have a BBQ when it's raining.
It's already lunch time here but we are not that hungry... perfect for a virtual BBQ :o)
Have a nive Ist of january.

HAPPY NEW YEAR JAKE, LINDA, YANA, BAS, GRENDEL, BLIKJIE and MANDY

OOOPs wrong pic!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EILEEN !

Happy New Year Martine! Did you have a great night? We went to our neighbours to welcome in 2004, I not allowed to drink so I am up and awake this morning LOL! I ate too much food though.

Looks like the sun is shining brightly on Bonaire now! Yea!! Good BBQ weather is in the forecast.....wish we could be there to join in the fun, too. Carole

Hello all. Well I finally managed to crawl over to the keyboard. Yep you guessed it, that I am in a rather fragile state today. Too much to eat and drink last night. Happy new year everyone. Annie B.

Morning Eileen, a quiet good morning to Annie B and Martine.
Now if only someone could find a way to lose weight while typing...

LOL Seb. I gotta go lay down. Be back later. Annie B.

A boat and divers

Happy new year everyone
I wish you a good health and many safe dives

BBQ cam is up!

More divers.

With New Year's Greetings!

Last one for now. It is nice outside so we are tearing down our lights. We usually take everything down Jan. 1.

Great pictures everyone. I am waking up now. Eileen. We took our decorations down today too. Annie B.

Hello.

Hello Annie B! The food looks great at the bbq! And here are some more diver shots.

What the pictures aren't showing is the huge amounts of rain that came down about 2 hours ago... Brave Wally just kept on BBQing while everybody took cover!

(Spoken from inside a packed Richter house... I love wireless connections and laptops!)

Just had to drop by and visit :-)

Thanks for hosting another great New Year's party by the seaside. At least this year I consumed virtually no calories or alcohol, LOL!

Well, blast, it looks like my computer has had a few too many Amstels.......

Proper formatting helps, duh!

Hi Mark - I thought I recognized you on the partycam! As well as George and Laura and I thought I saw Caren Eckrich and Karen from Oscarina......this has been a lot more fun than my new year's cleaning plans!

BON ANA NOBO!!!

Happy New Year again! I'm late for the barbecue I see...good thing I have some hors d'ouvres left over...had a quiet evening and day at home visiting my cousin from Oregon...very pleasant start to the new year!
woohoo fireworks

Okay, living on Bonaire for two years left my posting skills more than a little rusty....now my files are too big. Happy new year anyway! It's starting to sneu here so I've got to retrieve the towels from the clothesline....and get back to cleaning :-)

a plant??? or ghost of christmas past..lol

a little clearer pic from earlier

time to go to visit the parents now...see you all tomorrow...nice virtual party you had there Dara...
post some pic for me to see when I get back!

Found a couple of pictures in the archives. I fell asleep again watching tv. Annie B.

A couple from earlier.

Well it looks like everyone enjoyed the bbq. Thanks for sharing your party with us Jake and Linda. Actually I feel quite hungry now, but alas it is my bed time. See you all tomorrow. Sweet dreams everyone. Annie B.

Looks like everyone had--and is having--a great time!



Now back to mopping the kitchen floor! (What a way to spend New Year's Day)

The shot labelled "paper girl" was actually Faith carrying veggies and a knife over from across the street.

I suspect we've been on the streetcam a fair bit as we walk back and forth across the street.

Dan

Daniel. Thank you for clearing that up for us. Does it actually matter what a person titles the picture, especially when the shot is not at all clear to us. So where is the knife. Is it in the thing which looks like a rolled up "newspaper". Annie B.

Looks like everyone had a great time at the BBQ!

Indeed yes, Faith had the knife rolled up in a flour sack towel.

The BBQ was great. Big crowd, and everyone had a good time even with the several rain showers that wandered through.

Hello everyone! I think the 17:40 shot is Ann Phelan and Maggie...
