The Wannadive guys & gal (Mika) were wonderful as ever. Bob, Bart & Paul helped to hook me up with some new dive buddies when I needed one; I did several boat dives on Klein with them and enjoyed my daily treks to the shop for tanks and comaraderie. I finished my AOW dives the first week with them-couldn't have asked for a more pleasant and relaxing atmosphere in which to do so.

My first green flash! Woohoo, on my way to Cultimara, I noted that the sky was clear along the horizon...I sat down on a bench near Karels and WOW, there it was! Not caught on camera but here is what happened not long afterwards. There was the most amazing display of rays after the sunset!

Judy..The Green Flash is no myth.. The best time to see it on Bonaire is when the atmosphere is very clear & the sun sets right into the ocean.. On some spots on the island Klein Bonaire kinda gets into the way.

most green flashes have been observed while sipping on a bottle of heineken.

Vince, nice link to the green flash page! Yes, I was wondering if I would ever see one when there; the sky would seem clear but as the sun hit the horizon on many nights, some small and very distant clouds would be in the way! Keep trying Judy, it was amazing!

By Tribs - soon to be on Bon! (Supreme BonaireTalker - Post #3714) on Sunday, December 17, 2006 - 12:10 pm: |
