Bonaire Seemingly Spared
Most of the destruction in Bonaire was apparently from storm surge, as water was forced between Bonaire and Klein Bonaire. This meant that our favorite resorts on that side of the island, were hit the hardest. Luckily, according to the newspaper reports, there were no injuries to humans, and the pristine reefs that Bonaire is known for are largely intact. All of these things are very good, however we are still not sure when our friends will make it out. All flights to Bonaire to pick them up go through either Jamaica, Puerto Rico or Miami. All of those places may be seriously impacted by Ivan.
Oh when Nature does housecleaning, everyone gets kind of swept out the door.
