New blog! “Giving back” 26th July 2022 Kralen New blog! “Giving back” 26th July 2022 Kralendijk, Bonaire – Kralendijk, Bonaire via Corporal Miess As a species we take a lot from this earth. Materially we remove oil from its deep bedrock and repay the earth by returning Co2. Emotionally we witness amazing natural phenomena like the setting of the sun and then discard our rubbish polluting the World. On Ruffian our environmental footprint is tiny*, but we still have a footprint and thanks to Bonaire we’ve been able to give something back to make the world a better place....

New blog! “Night & Day” 20th July 2022 Kral New blog! “Night & Day” 20th July 2022 Kralendijk, Bonaire – Kralendijk, Bonaire via Batchelors Beach & Andrea 2, Bonaire Any 24 period is split into equal parts day and night. Days always seem to be highly utilised with every minute accounted for and adventures happening all the time. Night is usually reserved for recovering from all those daytime adventures and then hours and hours of lovely sleep. Many of our activities have remained resolutely during daylight but we’ve also used the night for some pretty extraordinary purposes. The usual activity of diving took place in daylight but this time there was a twist....

After years of hard study at high school, college or university, and having passed all their exams students get to don strange outfits that are unsuitable for daily life. Like these students, we have graduated but instead of just wearing strange outfits at the end of our studies, we have frequently been dressed in neoprene outfits and have ventured into places which are far from your usual daily life....

With cactus lined roads, blazing sun, darting liza With cactus lined roads, blazing sun, darting lizards and dirt roads you would think we’d been transported to South West America! In fact we’re looking for caves, with bats, stalagmites, stalactites and Arawak Indian cave art. All in the great company of @svsauvage and of course Larry came too. #bocaomnia #caveart

Schooooools out; forever.’ Being in Bonaire in perpetual summer we thought that school was a long way behind us.
