As DX trips go, this one was quite inexpensive. My total cost (food,
travel, accomodations, fees) was about $1,500. Most DXpeditions can
cost upwards of $10K, and the really rare ones can cost a lot more.
NI6T put it well -- countries are rare because they are remote, or
because they are hard to get to, or because few people live there. Those
conditions almost always mean that it will be expensive to travel there
and set up a station. And PJ4 (Bonnaire) is neither rare nor
unpopulated -- it's a nice little island, and we met a couple of local
hams during our visit who gave us a warm welcome.
