My parents are due back today from Bonaire. This is what they have to leave.

De fish, Boss! De fish!

Not much of a shot, but at least something. Charlotee and parrot friend (or for, since she's probably chasing him off).

That's "foe", not "for". Fingers not connected to brain, yet.

Good morning, buddies. Thanks for your kindnesses.

Another little fishy:

Morning, John Joel & Rusty. Thanks for the posts! How you doing, Rusty? BTW, Glenn had deleted the e-mail you send with the posting tutorial. After 2 weeks in Bonaire, I didn't think I'd remember how...but your instructions were so clear, that your student remembered! (Perhaps I'm just a "little rusty":>!!!)
Your pal...
Deb.

fish party!

De barge.

I still think it's Ellis Island - particularly clear viz today, John...

The Statue of Liberty just shifted to the North, tho. Huh!

Having watched the cams for a few months now, it seems to me that the difference between high and low tides isn't very large in Bonaire. Is that so?

That is so. I have never noticed a change in the tides. But I could be wrong.

Generally, it takes a major length of coastline, with substantial contribution from the shape of the coast, to build up a major tidal change. I haven't seen much more than a foot differential in any of the Caribbean Islands I have visited.

Meanwhile, a truck stops, totally ignoring the possibility of being washed away by the incoming tide.

I'm going soon - got to spend time with my Dad...

Here's a parrotfish - front and center

Rusty, you're having all the luck today. Every time I check in, it seems to be two minutes after one of your good fish captures. I'll forego the very blurred up-close wrasse back that's on now.

Rusty, give him a big hug...
