Ron, Great report! The dolphin experience makes me jealous. I can tell how much fun you had by your descriptions. Look forward to more installments and pictures.

Whew, that was way cool. Dang beginner's luck and you know the only trip I even saw dolphins in the distance was my first trip. Also great job, Bas getting ahead of them.

Thanks Ron! Great report. Sounds like you may have caught the same Bonaire fever that so many of the rest of us have a case of.

Hey Bas,

Don't know what you mean with full size but it is indeed open heel fins including booties (size 8 shoesize) he needs.

Wow! What a wonderful experience! My dive buddy learned that "DOLPHIN" actually means stop let me out of the truck! I still have not been in the water with them, but I am happy just stopping and watching them go by on the surface. What an amazing event for you!

Bas, I have some paddle fins I don't use anymore, they are either a small or medium (bootie kind). Such a shame his got stolen I say post again for Ramon, and maybe with a picture of him and his story?

Just to prevent confusion....there are 2 Diveguides named Bas. Even though I obviously do not refer to myself as 'the other Bas' I am kinda 'Other Bas' in the BT community since Bas Tol has been here longer. Yana started to call me OB1 (Other Bas 1) some time ago and many people now refer to me as such. I dive westcoast mostly....Bas T dives eastcoast mainly. So westcoast Bas and eastcoast Bas, Bas N and Bas T, 'Bas' and 'OB1'.....it all works for me.

Bos N or OB1 loved looking at Ron's pictures of the dolphins, my husband and I will be there for our first trip starting June 7th. We are going to be staying for the week at Buddy Dive. Wondering how do we hook up with you for a guided dive? We are looking for a simpler find other then dolphins (although nobody in there right mind would turn that down), LOL, but who said divers were in there right mind anyway? We are actually looking for some good picture opportunities of Seahorses.
