Harbour Village Marina, Bonaire

We had another good downwind sail to Bonaire.  It took 3 days and 3 nights.  We took a wide turn north to dodge the hungry Venezuelans and avoid having our toilet paper stolen.

We took a day trip to the Cadushy brewery.  They make everything from the local cadushy cactus, like rum, vodka, tequila.  We asked the same question, Isn’t rum made from sugar cane?

There is a huge sea salt facility at the south end of Bonaire.  They flood these plains and wait 6 months for the water to evaporate until all that is left is sea salt.
