    !4 Days in June: Fiji or Great Barrier Reef?

    Thanks guys. We are going to worldmark because we couldnt beat the price. free! :) We're the adventurous type so I imagine we'll end up wandering all over the place. I had orginally inquired with the dive shop at the worldmaek resort but I wasn't impressed with their communications so I went...

    Scuba Tony Cozumel

    I met him at Christi's shop very briefly. He was a very nice guy and if he's a friend of Christi's then I would say he's ok in my book.

    Congrats to JC & Hannah!

    One last note. I can't thank Christi enough for all the help she gave me for this entire fiasco. From finding alternate arrangements after the hurricane to helping plan the underwater engagement and restaurant/florist. She's a real sweet heart. Not to mention the invite to her place for new...

    Congrats to JC & Hannah!

    Here's part 2. This was on dry land so I figured I was safe.... ;) I've got a family heirloom engagement ring in the family that is 4 generations old. My mom sent it down to me a few months ago to use for this. Anyway... I told Hannah that I didn't have the ring with me because my mom...

    Congrats to JC & Hannah!

    So here was the plan.... I had spoken for a huge amount of time with Christi on the plans to do a proposal underwater. I figured that it would be best to do the proposal after everyone in our group had a few days to dive so that everyone was comfortable underwater. I'd filled everyone in our...

    Congrats to JC & Hannah!

    Didn't go as planned was an understatement. ;) But Christi deserves a ton of credit for helping me get the thing working in the first place. Plan A didn't work, plan B didn't work, plan C didn't work, and I had to resort to a plan D or maybe it was Z..... ;) Longer post coming in a little...

    Wide Angle Lens for PT-010

    Okay guys. Can someone tell me what lens(s) I can screw directly onto the PT-010 housing? I am a little confused with the sea and sea "bayonet" thingy. I like compact so screwing directly to the housing seems the way to go. Thanks

    OFFICIAL Press Release from the Cozumel Tourism Board

    Kudo's to Christi for all her help over the past 2 days tracking down an alternative place to stay. I'd also like to thank the few people that messaged me about available units down there. We've ended up at the Elcantil condos in a 4 bedroom villa. Last one that fit the dates. Without...

    OFFICIAL Press Release from the Cozumel Tourism Board

    Just as an update. The dates are indeed true. I've got nothing but nasty things to say about USairvacations who allowed us to book a hotel when it wasn't even planning to open. Let the crisis begin again.....

    OFFICIAL Press Release from the Cozumel Tourism Board

    I am questioning some of the hotel opening times. I was previously booked with Coral Princess and was told by my travel agent that they had an opening dat of Jan 1, 2006. When that schedule didn't work for us she found bookings for us at Fiesta Americana. So now I'm freaking out again. I've...
