Bonaire

On the 9/2 14;30, after a tedious clearing out of Granada in the new fancy Marina/Resort, we finally hoist the anchor and sat course towards Bonaire, one of the three ABC island in the Netherlands Antilles. We had two days and 20 hours in front of us starting with very good winds and one reef in main. Friday the 12/2 at 10 o’clock we arrived at Kralendijk and got help from a Dane, Jesper, with the mooring and tips about burger evening etc.. On Bonaire you are not allowed to droop anchor because the whole island is surrounded by corals. Later on we got to no Jesper, his family and friend and the stay on Bonaire turned out to be one of our bests, thanks to them. Alexandra was surrounded by corals and lots of colourful fish to look at, that gave us hours of nice snorkelling. Also touring around the island on a scooter and the national park up north in Jespers car gave lots of adventures. The greatest event was probably that Lars, together with Katerina, got the padi diver certificate. It was super and not at all easy. I am glad for passing the padi theory so I can make sure Lars’s diving equipment is okay. Maybe later on I can try again with the practical tests. Snorkelling is grate for me now!
