April 9 to 18, had all these grand plans for a trip report. Get back home, crashed computer, office landlord comes up with some seriously bogus...."we're gonna have to raise your rent" tale, and it got hot.

Whining over, had a great time, as always. Ate at the expectable places (not a bad meal anywhere), stayed at SandDollar (very nice spot), got in quite a bit of diving and took a bunch of video.

Rather than a trip report, here's a little bit of video. Be kind, I'm still learning. The camera is HD, but somehow I didn't set up youtube right or a screwed up the editting, so it doesn't play in HD.

Tanx for the kind comments.

It's a Canon HF 200 with a Canon WP V1 housing. I'm most pleased with the housing and camera, particularly it's weight and bulk (very compact and light), only comment I'd have about it is that using a wide angle lens (which I had from another housing that was stolen.....NOT in Bonaire) kinda screws up the autofocus around the outside edge of the picture. I guess I have to go back to Bonaire and practice some more.
