Bookings


Rick and I have always celebrated our December birthdays in the snow, cold, ice and gray skies of the Northern Hemisphere.  We were both born in Michigan (two years apart and consecutive days).  I am sure the days we were born were cold and snowy as they fall one week before Christmas. This year we will celebrate in the sun and ocean.

We booked a private day sail on a catamaran to celebrate our birthdays. We will snorkel, visit Klein Bonaire (a small island off the coast), walk on the beach and have a sunset cruise with dinner and drinks for two.

We also booked a tour of the snack bars on the island.  Snack bars on Bonaire are like fast food stops.  They have an array of fried foods.  Fries, burgers, fried cheese and something called "bitterballen" plus other things we don't understand.....and they put mayonnaise on all of the snacks.  Eight of us will pile in a van and go to the snack bars for beers and snacks.

Bonaire has electric ATV's that they call Twizeys.  We booked a tour to see the island in places we can't drive.  It should be fun to cruise around.  We will go to 
the state park which has notoriously bad roads.  The ATV should be perfect for an off-road experience.
