Liz I hope you survived the high-pressure world of DEMA and Orlando without the need for a chamber ride! A couple of "new to Bonaire" questions before we hit GRI next month:
1. I assume Wannadive can handle Town Pier dive requests? Do you know if we can request certain times (like early morning or night) or is it sort of like a lottery system, take what you get?
2. We dove Roatan w/out wetsuits when the water temps were 82-83F but I know fullsuits are a better bet to avoid coral contact. Wetsuit thoughts for mid-December?
3. I've read a lot about currents there but have seen nothing about currency. Uh, guilders, euro-bucks or greenbacks?
4. Coffee. While I'm hoping Starbuck's hasn't invaded the island (yet), is good coffee available or should we sneak our own past customs?
Will be buying Susan Porter's shore diving book when we get there, so I expect that to help with dive questions. Also have been checking out SB & Bonaire Talk posts, am staring at the reef cam (12:11pm and the south beach cam shows beautiful skies), doing "flyovers" on GoogleEarth--any other remedies for Pre-Bonaire Depression? Thanx!
