I know this is old news now, but yours truly is in it!
Indulge me - there is a brief shot of me in Cruise terminal last Monday when we were waiting anxiously to board the ship in Belfast. I am chatting with my new friend Richard Mawson, from the UK , who I just met there and he joined us for a brief, but action packed 5 days. Below is some of the ways we pass the time while at sea. So many choices and never enough time, the days truly Sail by!!!
View from one of high spot in the center of island looking out toward port. Island very dry and arid with lots of divi trees bent over in the winds and two types of cactus - one edible and the other poisonous ( used to build fencing). The Miller's and I did a private van tour around the island and then we ended tour at a beach for a couple hours R&R. Our fabulous driver/ guide came back and picked us up and concluded tour back to port and gave us each a gift ( Bonaire magnet). She was super! Below are slat fields - a big industry for Bonaire - harvested every March. Salt shimmers in sun as the water evaporates in the pools.
