Happy 3rd anniversary to my husband and me. We went to Aruba for our honeymoon and nothing says Aruba like the divi tree.
While up Divis Mountain near Belfast, I saw a group of houses. I grabbed this quick snap while they were all together.

A view of Divis Mountain from Belvoir Forest in Belfast, following a recent snowfall, in early February.
(I'm just going to upload pics I took in Belfast in the mid 1990s. I'll have to hunt our more of these.)
During German occupation of World War II, Bonaire was a protectorate of Britain and the United States. In fact, Flamingo Airport was an air force base, and Bonaire supplied a bulk of the oil that fueled Britain's and America's planes. Another interesting fact is that Germans were interned in Bonaire, specifically at the site where the Divi Flamingo Resort (where we're staying) is now located -- hence, "Zee Bad" gates. It bugged me that I didn't know this last year. But now I do!
Bonaire Flamingo airport ...September 2008.First flight 1973.On Thursday 22/10/2009 the aeroplane sustained substantial damage in a ditching off Bonaire Island, Netherlands Antilles.
The aeroplane departed Curaçao-Hato International Airport (CUR) on a VFR scheduled flight to Bonaire-Flamingo International Airport (BON) at 09:48 with an estimated landing time of 10:13. At approximately 10 minutes after departure a the nr.2 engine quit. The pilot elected to continue the flight to Bonaire on the remaining engine and at approximately 24 nm west of Bonaire, the pilot contacted Flamingo Tower and informed the controller that he was flying on one engine.
PJ-SUN started to lose altitude at a rate of about 200 feet per minute until it impacted the water at a position approximately 0.5 nm south of Klein Bonaire and 3 nm west of the main Island at time 10:17.
During the ditching, at impact with the water surface, the cockpit door and left main landing gear (LH MLG) were detached from the aeroplane. All 9 passengers survived the ditch and were rescued by a diver’s boat that was near the position of the ditching. The passengers reported that after the ditching, the pilot was injured and appeared to be unconscious as he did not try to remove himself from the aeroplane. The pilot actually went down with the aeroplane despite the efforts of some passengers who tried to remove him from his seat while the aeroplane was sinking.Aeroplane was written off...fatality one.
