Nothing wrong with some Spam. Fry some slices with your eggs or make a fried Spam sandwich - mayo and tomato to make a real top-of-the-heap sandwich.

My daughter and I stayed there for 2 weeks this past August.

Ordinarily we stay on the water, and our preferred...

To paraphrase that great philosopher and commentator on the human condition, Tim Wilson (deceased):

Well hell, maybe it's me.

Good luck...

You probably already know this, but Delta changed their website some time ago to default to "refundable fares", which yield +++$ fares. You have to go into "advanced search" and unclick the little...

I've always thought it would be good to be a "kept" man...

Just occurred to me:

We once took a look at one of the Piet Boon houses on the south shore.

Truly magnificent, and I would call them "pristine".

May be too big for your group, and take $$$$.

Den Laman, maybe? We stayed there when it was nearly new, and it was as near to pristine then as you're likely to find on Bon. Haven't been back, but we like to move around. (Until BCV became our...

I will second Beachcomber. We stayed there routinely when Tim&Leanne where the owners, and can't imagine that it has changed for the worse since the change in ownership. A wonderful place.

We've done it a number of times, with my youngish children 11-12-13, like that.

It's a long way out, but if you go it is great snorkeling.

Remember sun protection, and...

Naw, don't post it.

oh, wwguy, awareness is overrated.

somebody told me that. I wouldn't know anything about awareness.

wwguy has it.

I generally know from our extremely accommodating hostess exactly what our cost for lodging/dive fees (DFB also)/taxes will be, and always bring a "brown paper bag" full of cash to...

If you want to dive Hilma Hooker from shore (we do when we dive it, which is not often) go early. Be the first ones there - 0700 or thereabouts. Most of the tarpon that hang in the hold take off...

if you continue up the road Thom is talking about it will end at the "fish camp".

I've never dived at the fish camp.

Heading back south from the fish camp you will come to Nukove. This is a...

Yellow headed jawfish are the coolest thing going. I can watch them for a long time, just waiting for them to spit sand and pebbles out of their hole.

Well, I ignored your first trip report post, but then you go and bump it and post some more. I guess I'll have to spend all day tomorrow looking at your pics and reading your blog.

Side note: I...

We usually go during the summer - jun-sept - and have reliably seen bait balls in the shallows at Salt pier and White Slave. At salt pier I lay down on my back on that rock shelf coming in and hold...
