 Tuesay, March 4, 2025: Outside of tourism the main industry in Bonaire is salt production. Sea water is dried in large flat areas and salt is harvested.  There is a pier where ships are loaded with salt for the world market.  Tourists stop to see these slave huts. Back in the day, slaves were used in the salt production industry. Slavery was abolished in 1863.  Wind surfing is popular on Bonaire where wind blows most of the time.  Every island needs a lighthouse or two. Some tour the island on golf cart type vehicles.  Dutch brought traditional wind mills to pump water, something they know well.  The Caribbean Sea crashes on the shore.  Another crusie ship. This one the Celebrity Beyond.  Paula was out diving in the clear waters again.    Sunsets were worth seeing on Bonaire.  Did you ever try Goat? It tastes a lot like beef except there are some small bones.  Night at Buddy Dive Resort in Bonaire. |
Quote of the day:
Another great day in Bonaire. Mark |
