Our Day at the Salt Mines & Lac Bay

 Pink water on the left (the evaporation pools that have pink-colored halophiles). This is where the salt mines are. The Cargill Company has what is the only real industry on the island -- salt.
 After the salt mines, we stopped at Lac Bay, which had an actual sandy beach!

We're loving Bonaire!

  2. So far we have learned a lot! Like the different fish and how big they are. During night dives Tarpon swim next to us and it is scary at first but then we got used to it. Tarpon can get up to 3-4 feet and have a torpedo shape like body.
