Caribbean Cruise - Day 5

The islands of Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao all belong to the Dutch Antilles and are referred to as the ABC islands.  It was a short cruise to Bonaire from Aruba where we travelled on Day 5 of our cruise.  The population of Bonaire is only about 16,000.  There is a walkway along the water where we walked.  Anchored close to shore we saw many small craft including a couple of boats with Canadian flags. The water was very clear and we saw coloured fish, sponges and corral in the water.  We saw young children playing in the water and old men feeding pelicans.  In the evening, the main stage show featured a pianist from Las Vegas who was quite incredible on the piano, featuring many of his own variations on popular tunes.
