Dale dropped me off at the airport in Houston where I joined other members of the Eels on Wheels group for a dive trip to Bonaire. We arrived.....my roommate, Patsy and I checked into our room, unpacked, and headed to dinner. Up the next morning we had orientation after breakfast and had the option to do a checkout dive on the house reef. I was on the Sea Queen with a great group of folks, definitely the best group and best boat! Our divemasters Max and Luis were both great, and put up with our craziness for the whole week. This year we had only 5 folks in chairs on the trip....seems most that didn't make it had some type of conflict going on...hope to see them next year.
I logged 16 dives during the week and enjoyed some great diving. We got to dive the Salt Pier twice, which is an awesome dive site with lots to see. Several dives were made on Klein Bonaire during the week. We saw octopus, turtles, seahorses, eels, squid, and lots more! The water was about 81* most of the week with pretty calm seas, no current, and pretty decent visibility. We got in about one hour of bottom time on each dive.
