![]() Bonaire Reef Scene Good evening from HOT Curacao!! Still no rain and the desert is getting as dry as a bone and is quickly turning into a dust bowl! After work this evening I gave Aimee a much needed break and took the dogs out for a quick walk and really got a first hand look at how dry our little island is and it’s so early in the year for this? It was a bit strange being back at work today I kept looking around for my dive gear but remembered it was all at home airing out still. We had some kind of a strike going on at the oil refinery and they were telling folks to get gas because no one knew how long it would last? So Aimee took the car and headed out to fill up but found out immediately she couldn’t even get close to the station as there was a line of cars waiting a mile long so she just went back home. And because of no gas that means other services are down as well like making breads and stuff you don’t even think of so like a good girl she raced to the store and joined in the madness of everyone stocking up. Our electricity was off for most of the afternoon but came back on before I got home so that is good although no telling how long it will last so if you don’t hear from us that’s why! Ahh the joys of living on a Caribbean island!
Here’s another shot from O’l Blue in Bonaire. This a big beautiful Schoolmaster (Snapper) just hanging out in front of a gorgonian with his head into the current. I saw these fish everywhere on this trip, sometimes by themselves as seen here and many times in small schools. The first dive we did was by far the clearest dive we did the whole trip you could see for a hundred feet in every direction, it was great. Again thanks to Sal, Patty, Scott and Tammi for constantly waiting on me while I ever so quietly moved in for shot after shot, it takes a bunch of patience to get a nice picture with fish in it sometimes. I have so many fun shots from this trip and will be sending them out one by one, so again stay tuned for more.
Need to close early just in case the power goes out again, see you tomorrow, Barry
