Caribbean Note I

We escaped the frigid North and for the past week have been enjoying the warm sun, sand and turquoise water of Bonaire. After a last minute upgrade to first class (to save baggage charges) we made our way to the Caribbean and arrived on the island in time for Karnival. (Think Rio but on a much, much smaller scale.)

We have been diving at some of our old favorite places like the Andrea's and Aquarius, and we checked out "the Pipe" at Witches Hut. The weather has been mild compared to the 90 degree plus heat during our September-November trip. January and February are two of the most popular months for divers to escape the snow and ice and visit Bonaire. We have been spending time with our friend and he will be flying back and staying with us during the four weeks between trips this time.
The house is still in one piece; all is well here. Berit and I are watching the new season of Survivor and spending a lot of time sitting in our garden watching the birds and lizards play.
