Recharge Days & German Food!

Some days I just need to recharge or get stuff done; Sunday & Monday were that for me. I have been really affected by allergies in Ireland and German, tons of pollen, so needed a trip to pharmacy. I also was in desperate need of a Mani / Pedi and quite happy what I negotiated at OH LA LA! I also needed some computer time for work & personal finances, and I needed to do laundry. It was also not the best weather, spotty showers, so perfect days to chill and relax!
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.
