After a horrible incident with airport personell in Bonaire this past Christmas, I said I'd never go back. To many places I have yet to dive to go through what we did at that airport. But, I am happy to say that after being compensated nicely by the airlines as well as having almost a year to calm down and really contemplate the trip as a whole {instead of just the airport incident}...We have just made our reservations at Eden Beach (which we adored) for July of 2005!

For those of you who are wondering what the hell problems I am referring to...

Rich, I'm glad that you decided to return to Bonaire despite luggage/ticket problems.

Hi, Rich! I just read your new posting and smiled a huge grin! I went back to the original posting and read that along with my response to your incident. It does pay to pursue the airlines and sit back a distance and reflect on the overall trip. I'm so glad things worked out well and that you are returning to Bonaire again to enjoy all that she has to offer.

The decision was hard. We had been to the Keys twice and loved it. Dove Jamaica. Dove Cozumel. Trying to figure out where to next, and Eden Beach kept popping into our heads. That place is just way to great not to go back for seconds. Then we started talking about all the great grub. Then we pulled out our logs and a Bonaire dive map and realized how many sights we still had not dove. The straw that cracked it was, for a guy who doesn't drink beer, (whiskey w/water back please) those Amstels are sure excellent! If they lose my luggage though...I'm twisting some necks!

Rich, having had my luggage lost, let me assure you, it's just stuff. Okay, some of it may be your favorite stuff, and some of it is quite expensive, but that's why we have insurance.
