Sorry to hear this Hillary. I had my truck tossed at Angel City this morning. I leave nothing of value, so they found nothing. I only realized what had happened because nothing was where I left it. Shorts and t-shirt were up front and I had left them in the back (I'm burnt and wanted to put the T on as soon as I removed the wetsuit). I'm driving an SUV for those of you trying to envision what I am describing. They tossed my towel into the middle section and then left the glove box open. Oh well...nothing lost. I was just surprised it happened there since there were several trucks at Angel City and the Hilma Hooker was swamped!

i have been diving in bonaire since 1994 & part of my introduction to the island was the whole "don't leave anything in your truck, leave your windows rolled down so they don't smash them on their way in, yatta, yatta, yatta," so nothing unfamiliar there. i'm just sorry that there has been no headway in making the island safer for their tourists, one of, if not their biggest, industries i would guess. sad.

thanks, all! thank you, freddy for your help!! the twins had a great time, playing in the pool @ buddy's (i think they're just now beginning to dry out), seeing the lighthouse, windsurfers, flamingoes, donkeys, goats, cactus, lizards, beach.... on & on. they especially enjoyed feeding bread to the fish @ the dock every morning after breakfast. they've gotten really good at identifying parrotfish, angelfish, trumpetfish, & several of the others who came when the breakfast bell was rung! i was one proud mommy when they were telling folks getting ready to dive what fish they were seeing. and thanks to michael (fellow diver on the wild side dives with us) for the recommendation to eat @ mi banana, a restaurant owned by the family of carlos, one of the dm's @ bdr. great food & reasonable prices!!

Hi folks....we're about to make our first trip to the Dutch Antilles, but only 4 days in Bonaire. What's not to be missed (aside from the diving)?

again nothing new for the island but I'm sure most of us would expect to be victims of the same sort of crime at home malls,ball games or parking garages all a candy store to would-be thieves hopefully soon with more Dutch control we will see a better police presence and response

Matthew -- were they rented tanks from one of the regular dive shops (Buddys, Dons, etc) or were they yours? We've left rented tanks in the back of the truck numerous times with no thought of theft. After all, where would they go?
