I feel I like I am at the Macy's day parade or in the movie a Mircle on 34th street!
I cannt believe it, I know its simply not true!. Its the miracle of Christmas!!!!
Some friends staying at Perla actually found a frog fish!!! I hope Santa is as good to me as he was with them.!!!
So show us your pics if you have some of the Bonaire Frog Fish!!
Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas!!

Wow, talk about pressure! I think I'm up to the task though. We're laying over in Atlanta tonight and then headed to Bonaire on the weekly Delta flight in the morning. The search for frogfish and seahorse photos for Dee will begin in earnest on Sunday. This year our house reef will be Andrea 1 instead of Cliff, so no telling what we'll find. Have GoPro, will dive... Stayed tuned.

Well, you'll be missing your opportunity for me to buy dinner for you and your lovely bride. We're in Seattle this week visiting my small child, and I will be detouring to Boise next week. I had it in mind to contact you to try and take y'all to dinner while I'm there, but noooo... You take off for three weeks in Bonaire.

Just so you know, the forecast for Boise is not quite as good as the forecast for Bon.

And im not jealous.

Sorry about missing you Brad!

P.S. - Feel free to stop by our house and shovel the snow from our driveway.

Hey Guy,i was just at Andrea 1 today, was fortunate to have a spotted eagle ray fly by, three blue midnight parrot fish, only one turtle, the usual eels, BUT, i searched every inch of green and gold coral for the yellow frog fish or even a red one for christmas sake................ All I want for Christmas is a Frog Fish!!! LOL

so...

I'm enjoying the HGI here in Boise ID. I'm sure Boise is a lovely place in summer, but gray is just not a good look.

It's 28 degrees F, and threatening snow.

I suppose it's not 28 deg on Bonaire...

oh, the snow is due this PM and tomorrow. I won't have an opportunity to shovel your drive before I leave.

Darn.

Thanks Brad. The weather here is bearable, but still no frogfish for Dee though. We'd probably find more critters if we spent more time in the water. When we arrived the winds were up, viz and water temps were down, so we've only been doing a couple of dives a day. Luckily we've found other ways to bide our time.

Venezuelan Polarcitas are back on the island and our view is tolerable. :cool2:

Critters are over-rated.

Polarcitas are not.

Do you all usually see many scorpionfish? I think we saw three last trip and I don't remember ever seeing them before.

oh gee, i can see why your view is so good,,, wait!!! was that me trying to get into Andrea I without falling????????
Water temp dropped to 78 degrees the other day!!! I hope it warms up for you guys.
