Bike & Swim Time on Bonaire

Today's adventure included a 6-mile bicycle ride, a drive by tour of a salt refinery, and swimming at one of the nicer beaches we've seen so far.  Our tour guide was a local who shared a lot of insider information. We had fun and enjoyed the early morning tour time (to beat the heat). 

Early tour means early breakfast! 

A quick pre-tour of town while we wait for our tour group to line-up.

Slave houses from the time of slavery here on the island (the native language is a slavery language made up of about 7 different languages).

And we're off!

Flamingo!

More slave houses

An Obelisk (there were several on the tour)

They export ocean salt for Cargill brand

We were a bit warm...

...so we took a swim and looked at our boat from a far. What a nice place!  Now for a shower and a some shopping.
