Good Thoughts for Bonaire
Bonaire is being hammered by Hurricane Ivan. Fellow divers know Bonaire as a pristine diving location, likely the best in the Caribbean. We have done a lot of diving on their reefs, and enjoy Bonaire as our favorite vacation spot. In fact, we would have been there during this hurricane, as our dive shop is on a trip there right now. Circumstances prevented our joining them. We have some good friends currently on the island who were unable to leave since Air Jamaica only flies on Wed. and Sat.
So we have possible human costs, animal costs, and marine costs we are looking at. Reef damage is likely. Hopefully everyone living there, and on surrounding islands, will be ok. Please send your good thoughts.
