Best of Mike #122

Although, it looks for all the world, like the "attack of the killer crabs".... it's really more of a beach clean up effort.

These Crabs have found the carcass of a Sharptail Eel just above the water line.... and are working hard to scavenge what they can before the next high tide.

On the last night of pretty much every Bonaire trip.... we go to Richard's for dinner.

This was the scene that played out on the rocks below as we waited for dinner to be served.... the appetizers were excellent too.

Richard's restaurant is in a converted house that sits right on the waters edge.

The seating is on a series of balconies that  extend out over the water.... including a very romantic table for two that sits all alone right at the end of the pier.

There really is a Richard.... a refugee from Boston who has for the last 20+ years owned and operated this great spot.

But don't go in August. He closes for that month and takes his annual vacation in America.... probably a driving trip in his vintage Ford pick-up, that usually involves some fishing.
