Dutch Antilles
Bonaire. We had wonderful snorkling and diving here. Took a day trip around the island. Top left is a 4 man slave hut. In the middle the salt pans. We saw a few flamingos in various shades of lovely pink. And of course lots of prickly cactus.

Klein Curacao. This tiny flat island had nothing but a derelict lighthouse, a few wrecks and a few decaying tourist facilities.


Bottom right is the rotating pontoon bridge in Curacao. Quite a contrast being on the Dutch islands, so clean and neat after the rest of the Carribean.
