Island stuff

I am sure this is culturally inappropriate for anywhere but Bonaire.  This is a wall mural at a boutique hotel near our house.







Everything is flamingos in Bonaire.  The airport is named after flamingos, everyone sells flamingo statues, and houses are painted flamingo pink, mailboxes are flamingos, there are flamingo purses, chairs and mobiles.



Many open air restaurants are surrounded by sand.  So they provide paint brushes to wipe the sand off your toes. This one is at Blennies near Buddy Dive Resort. 



These orchids are in our garden in front of a statue of a child.

    Sounds like the Bonaire Department of Transportation is almost as bad as the Arvada DOT! And, by the way, if you get my name in the Christmas drawing.....I probably already have a flamingo handbag....so I'm good!
