Roxanne and Dennis,

A great big "thank you" for all you did to make our week in Bonaire a huge success. It was great to see and dive with friends from last years invasion and meet new friends this year. Thanks again for all your hard work!!

Colin
 
Nice seeing you again, Colin, as well as everyone else. It was a great week. Someday Cindy will arrive healthy and be able to dive with us. :D
 
Back home and taking the next week off to recover from the Invasion :D
I can't thank Dennis and Roxanne enough for organizing another amazing event. For me, the diving and the location are secondary... it's the friends I've made and the reunion with them each year that I look forward to. Janet and I had such a wonderful time. Of course kudos go out to Pete and Elena as well for providing the inspiration.
Having the manufacturer/sponsors along was truly fabulous: Rick from Vivid-Pix making photo adjustment so unbelievably easy; Amy from Light & Motion with revolutionary lighting options (would REALLY love to get myself a SolaTM someday); Ken from Mocean Armor, although I never did get to try it out, he's promised a special "neighbour tutorial" :); and finally, Brian from GO WEST Diving in Curaçao for making the trip over with his dive boat -- seriously nice guy (he's Canadian of course:D), and has sent Janet over the moon with his generous prize of a trip to his place in Curaçao.
The Invasion just keeps getting better and better each year.
I can_not_wait to see everyone again in 2014!
 
As promised here are some of the rare creatures found during the invasion!

Danny and I had a FANTASTIC week! Reuniting with old friends and making new ones; it does not get any better than that!

Many thanks to:


Dennis and Roxanne for their primo organizational skills!

Our wonderful sponsors..........(Danny now gets the Ikelite strobe to match the housing he won last year).

Plaza Bonaire! They did a great job considering that they were really understaffed to handle a group of our size.

Link to my photos. They seem very inadequate compared to the "professionals" on our trip, but they are all mine!
