Is there anyone traveling to Bonaire, especially from the Austin Texas area, willing to pick up a tiny item from a store located in the "shopping street " ?

The item in question is a small ceramic yellow turtle, with a baby green turtle on its back. Both have bobble heads and feet. "Bonaire" is written on the bottom. The total size is no bigger than a lemon. I think the total cost was around $6.00. I do not know the name of the shop, but it is located on the West side of the main "shopping street", south of Gio's ice cream. It is a small narrow store and the ceramic turtle (s) are located to the back/left of the store.

Overall, as described, this item is not a priceless piece of china, however, it was to be part of a set for my granddaughters garden, but "Gammy" dropped the bag while unpacking and shattered it.

I believe Bonaire Affair is the name of the store. They have a lot of great items. Everything made on the island by local artists and craftsmen. The owner is an artist and her daughter runs the store. I would help you out, but won't be there anytime soon. Good luck. Included a pic.

Sue Sue-- If anything should happen to the replacement send me a PM. I'll be headed out there at the end of July. I'm in Austin so getting it to you would be easy.
