Vagabonds


We arrived on Bonaire through the Flamingo Airport on February 14, 2021.  It had been two weeks since we moved out of our house in Arvada.  We had spent time in a rental house in Olde Town Arvada, the Hilton Gardens, at our good friends the Corzine's, two days in Miami to get Covid testing, two days in Curacao for a lay over and more Covid testing and finally got to Bonaire.


We rented a little seaside apartment in the northern part of the island in an area called Sabadeco. Since we don't close on our new house until the end of February we needed a place to camp. We love the outdoor living. We love swimming everyday. And the view is great. We love the warm days with trade winds blowing.



This Flamingo is made of junk found in the ocean.  It stands on the main drag of Kralendijk. I think it's the official bird of the island. It's the only Flamingo I can photograph.  In nature they are always far away and have their heads in the water.  They all look like pink blobs standing on long, thin sticks.  I will keep trying to get a photo of the real thing.
 


Nothing like drinks on the beach.  This is how they serve Gin & Tonic. It's a little more interesting than showing a beer bottle which is what we drink most of the time when we don't have wine.

Cheers!
