Saturday in the Caribbean

It’s actually sprinkled a couple times today, it feels very light. 

We went snorkeling by Kline Bonaire which means little Bonaire. The boat ride was slow going out and coming back. I’m not sure if they were just trying to make it last the 3 hours advertised or what. The reef at Kline Bonaire was neat, the water was beautiful. We didn’t get to see the turtle others in our group did but we seen a lot of fish and Emily seen an eel. We both seen a small flounder. I’m going to try and get some more of the sea life pictures to Emily to post. I have some videos that I have to watch and screen shot. 
They gave us a “tour” of the coastline on the way back. Our guide was also the owner of the Blue Bay tour company, he was actually very entertaining. Blue Bay has an office on the resort grounds and was easy to set up our tour. It also wasn’t very expensive Compared to other snorkeling trips. It was a good way to get over to the island and back. 
The part of the island we were at actually has a nice sandy beach, Emily and I brought back way more sand than we would have preferred. 

After we got back we cleaned up and went for a late lunch. The live cooking as they call it at the “restaurant” was a very good shrimp dish. 
Then we rode the scooter into town to get Emily a metal fish sculpture she had decided on. We may have to check a bag on the way back. Maybe we can pack different on the way home.

So tomorrow we have kayaking and snorkeling in the mangroves, it is our last scheduled activity. After that we slide into the lame duck portion of our trip. Hopefully we can keep ourselves occupied and our minds off the fact we are coming back to the land of ice and snow. Sounds like you all have had some nicer weather to the north but it still won’t compare to here. 

Hopefully you all have been able to make out some of the sea life from my gopro knock-off camera. It’s a goplus, I think I gave $20 for it. It doesn’t do too bad and with the app it has some decent features. I think you can find them on Amazon if you’re wanting something like that but don’t want to shell out the big bucks. Mine came with a waterproof case and some mounting stuff. It says it does 4k quality and I know there are settings that can be changed for it. 

If anyone has any comments or questions feel free to post on the blog, we do look for feedback on what information we share you are interested in and what makes your eyes 👀 glaze over! Just keep it clean and friendly. 


Below are pictures of the flounder we saw. It’s white and flat so a bit hard to see.
