Hi everyone, I have not visited this forum for awhile, so I thought I would catch up and get a Bonaire fix. I love seeing everyone's trip reports...thanks for sharing. I thought I would offer up a link to my report from 2003. Hope you all enjoy the pics and report. Thanks for letting me rediscover Bonaire.

Hi Linda, the camera was the canon s400 in a dedicated underwater housing. Glad you liked the pics :-)

Cyd...have you ever thought of selling that article to Caribbean Life Magazine? It was as good if not better than any article I've read in there. And your pics are certainly magazine worthy too! You must be a published writer already, yes?

Mercy, Thank you so much for the kind and encouraging words. No, I have never thought of selling my stories...until now...and no, I have never been published. Perhaps I will look into such a venture-any tips? Thanks again for being so kind. ~Cyd

Hmmm....I would say just buy the magazine and email the editors with a sample of the article and maybe a couple of pics and see what they say..can't hurt, eh? They do love Bonaire in that mag!

Cyd, I agree with the others, you are an excellent writer and would definitely be better reading than many others!!! Great pictures, too

if you look at the masthead of most magazines, it tells you not to send unsolicitaed manuscripts as they will be round filed. As a rule, you need to send a query letter first to the proper editor and wait for them to respond. CTL used to be a tough publication to break into.

Thanks to everyone for the advice, I think I just might seriously look into such a venture. Thanks again for the vote of confidence :-)
