The diving freedom is fantastic on Bonaire.  It's one of those things you
almost fear will disappear someday.  Just throw a tank in the rental pickup
and go where you want, when you want.  Extremely good night diving right
off the Carib Inn dock.

Wife had a very bad outbreak of sea lice--took us by surprise.  Local
doctor didn't recognize it (we researched it after we got home) Local
diving folks were not aware of the influx of the jellyfish.  Will take
SafeSea next time.  I didn't get it because I took off my swimsuit after
every dive, dried off and changed clothes (wife left swimsuit on)
