No cams so far this morning

Here are a few pictures from Bonaire last month.

Brian

Good Morning Everyone!

Still no sign of the cams this morning. Great pics Brian!

OH NO!! We are camless. Morning Eileen, and Brian, nice pictures. Thanks for sharing. Annie B.

I'm going through withdrawels!

Hi goodmorning everybody,
Beautiful pics Brian. Congrats.
The cams were working at 04.00 AM but there was nothing to see...
Well, being ( shortly I hope ) camless is convenient for me regarding the homework left I have to do :o)
I wish you a nice sunday, I'll be popping in from times to times to check if the cams are back working, my homework is nearly over :o)

Good Morning All. NIce Pics!!!!! 4 more weeks and I'll be there. Can't wait.

Hooray the cams are back on line.

Thanks - the yellow frogfish was the size of a thumbnail and had just nipped Chris Chalk- must have been still hungry as he had his lure out.

The cams are back, the cams are back!

OOPs...

Excellent shots Brian, esp. the lure!

Satch is back.

Oh good they are working again. He everyone. Welcome to BT Stuart. Bet you're getting excited. Annie B.

How rude of me! Welcome Stuart!

Hi, home work is all OVER !
Welcome Stuart, so the count down has started for you.
"Woodwind" is moored at Small Wall. I wish I could be on board :o)

I am glad your homework is over Martine! Right now there is a Harrison Ford movie marathon on right now. We are going to leave in 1/2 hour to go to my sisters place for Thanksgiving there. So I will miss the afternoon of Harrison...

We have snorkelers

I was about to post that Brian! GMTA!

Hi Eileen

Good job they avoided the Reefcam if that was the Sorobon nude cruise on the Woodwind.

WHAT BRIAN ?

sorry about the morning camera outage. In the ongoing effort to increase disk space for new images, we had another case of a full disk array. I re-routed the cameras to a new drive that's got plenty of space.

Those looking at the archives will see they're not completely visible at present, but never fear, the images just need to be copied yet again (it takes a long time to move hundreds of gigabytes of data!).

Things started blocking around 4AM, and when I logged in at 8:15AM or so I saw error indications and got busy fixing things.

Dan

NUDES???

Thank-you Daniel for your hard work!

Have a great afternoon everyone, my husband and I are leaving for my sister's for Thanksgiving dinner. Bye for now!

Bye bye Eileen, enjoy your evening, and Mucha Danki Daniel.

Apparently (so I hear) that the Sorobon guests arrange a weekly nude cruise on the Woodwind.

It is not my cup of tea, but it is a free world.

Sorry apparently the nude cruise is on Mondays.

Quote "Every Monday the "Woodwind" sails out on her nude cruise. You sail to Klein-Bonaire or North along the coast. There you will have a great snorkel experience. Maybe you will meet with turtles or dolphins!
A special offer for the guests of Sorobon. You can let the trade winds carry you off to fun and adventure on board of this big Trimaran. During this three hour trip you will get the possibility to explore the scenic reefs of Bonaire and on the way back you can enjoy the open bar and the plenty of tempting Sailor's snacks. All you need is a towel, sun-cream and a smile."

Hello Fishy !

Morning all...thanks for the great pics brian...chris chalk...any relation to the jack variety?

Dan, thank for fixing our addiction...I fear we would all have to go through some sort of 12 step program if the cams were down longer than a few hours (I have thankfully lived through week long outages, but it wasn't easy)...so folks, we have been once more saved from rehab

hotlips...

Hi Cynde

Chris is Jack's son and a very good underwater guide

Thanks Brian...have you done a trip report yet (hint that I want to see more pictures)

squid flyby...nice formation boys!

Hi Annie and Eileen. Excited? The dive gear is packed. Video is packed. Digital Camera- packed. Clothes, stacked, waiting to be packed.

Cynde

The trip report is written - just waiting for two more rolls of slide film to come back and then - hopefully a few more pictures.

Brian

Stuart, you will have a fantastic time!

Brian, can't wait

Thanks Cynde. In addition to the diving, there aere a couple of restaurants that we enjoy going back to.

Just goes to show you-I get so excited, can't spell!

Cynde

How about a Bonaire calendar with pictures from BT'ers with profits for the Donkeys??

What do you think.

Stuart, are you planning on visiting the cams? If so, how will we recognize you?

Vroom Vrôoooom !
Well, time for me to say goodnight. Sorry, I won't wait for the sunset tonight.
Bonne nuit and sweet dreams to you all.

Brain, that is an AWESOME idea!! OMG, how do we do it though?

Trying to get the vision out of my head of naked snorkellers trying to avoid the coral on the reef. OUCH! LMHO. The calendar sounds like a good idea. Annie B.

Annie, fire coral would be the worst! Looks like Jake and Linda have arrived home after their trip to Aruba to see Crosby Stills and Nash Wonder how the kids liked it!

Sunset time

I'm outta here now, so see you guys and gals tomorrow. Night night. Annie B.

Red sky at night, shepherds delight.

Cynde,I'll be the one holding the sign that says "hi everyone" and will have a smile from ear to ear.

Has anyone dove the site Blue Hole? We have driven to the marker but weren't sure where to go from there

Brian, extraordinary frogfish! Size of a thumbnail!? Wow! All three photos great, so we know we will be enjoying your report when it arrives. Thanks :-)
