Thank so much! I'll look into it.

Who did you book this excursion with? We are going in November and have something booked already but we're doing a B2B so we'll be back in December. Maybe I can get the roll call interested. Thanks for any info.

In case you're still following, yes he does. We have him booked for Nov. 2023. He has been very quick with email communication... in English.

No, decided to wait and see what would happen.

We received a Royal Up a week ago for a 9/17 sailing. People on our roll call got it yesterday. I think they award to the highest bidders first and if there are still cabins they go down the list. I clicked on the 3rd notch, so above the lowest level. I had an inside gty, they assigned me a cabin I hated so I went in and adjusted my bid because I had just clicked the lowest amount to begin with. I ended up with a balcony. If you bid the minimum I doubt you have a chance, but you never know.

Compass Bonaire has a dinner cruise. Check their website, click on cruises and there's a calendar of available dates.

Bonaire's "beaches" are small and rocky. You can walk down to Karel's beach bar from the ship (it's to the left) and catch their yellow water taxi over to Klein Bonaire to snorkel. There is nothing on that island except sand and brush, but it's a drift snorkel site. Or take a taxi to Spice beach club at Eden beach. Bring water shoes. Bonaire is full of rocks and beautiful fish. There will also be vendors under tents with different offerings of tours if you don't find something you like from the ship.
