Our friend the donkey.

We had an awesomely busy day, fit in kayaking, snorkeling and another visit to our favorite bonaire place, the donkey sanctuary. 

First, we rented a two person kayak and paddled across to Klein Bonaire, a small uninhabited island off the coast of Bonaire. It has fantastic snorkeling off a white sand beach. We headed out over the shelf drop off and found two VERY curious French Angelfish. They were literally inches from me for minutes on end. So cool, as they're my favorite fish in the ocean. 

We ended our day with a flourescent night snorkel, equipped with blue lights and filters on our goggles. Things glow out there at night. The most cool, eels!  Bright neon yellow, who knew?

But what happened in between those two activities was the real treat. Tom got bit by a donkey. Yep, an ass, right...on...the....thumb. He had too small of a carrot with an over-enthusiastic donkey. Hehe. We think he actually might lose the fingernail, or at least get a good bruise out of it. Below, find the before picture, then the after picture of him holding a bloody paper towel to his chest while scolding the offender.

Ahhh...onto caving tomorrow!
