I agree with Donnad -- she is right on the money: Since it sounds viral, get something that inhibits thems replication. I have used Zycam (tiny tube of gel) and Zinc Lozenges for quite a while. The cold does not go away, but this regime started soon enough seems to have clinical backing that...

Hello My daughter and I look to be heading to Fiji and then to the Cooks over winter break. I have read the guidebooks all I can handle. Fiji and Rarotonga I have figured. Does anyone here have personal experiences with lodging on Aitutaki? Any recommendations? Any caveats? Thanks Michael

Well, I just took the plunge. Called and made reservations. We will pass Kadavu this trip. Hopefully http://www.nananuislandlodge.com/ is the right choice. She is 14 -- it did seem like this place would be more fun for her. We have 32 dives between us -- my sense was that he diving here...

Oh boy. And I just booked us a week at the Matava Resort. I better bring some comfort food.

Thank-you; I'll give them a ring today. Appreciate the answer. michael

I have looked as much as my search abilities allow; who sells these suits and where? I am getting ready to buy 2 7mills, and I would like to consider these. I cannot find any US distributors or dealers. Thanks

Hello Jadub Yes, you are correct -- that is about the time. An hour to the border from Tucson, and about 4 hours or so from the border to SC. The catch is the border crossing. We went through in 20 minutes -- and I think that was very, very fast: I have heard from dive shops and from...

My daughter and I just returned from San Carlos. As noted in other threads here, the airfares are pretty steep. America West is the main carrier to Guaymas -- and whether you do a 14 day or 21 day or right now purchase, the fares start at least at 500US. We drove from Albuquerque to Tucson...

Las Cruces? Have you hit San Carlos yet in Mexico? About 4 hours south of Tuscon stright shot to the Mexican coast. I have lots of pictures of Blue Hole. Imagine going round and round and round and round in a giant 80 foot well! We are here in Albuquerque.

Bob: Where in this state are you? How many times have you been out to Santa Rosa? Michael

Hello Bluocean21 Nice to have you here!! A New Mexican Newbie?? I cannot imagine that you are THAT new to scuba diving. So.... how did you come up with the name bluocean? That surprised me! What was the inspiration for that moniker?

Whew! Thank-you so much! All my responses were far less measured than yours.

Hey, great information! Thanks alot! Looks like San Carlos in October. Any recommendations on a place to stay? I will be taking my 12 year old with me -- she is certified. Would like a place that understands the need to rinse and dry gear! Clearly, dive shops go to SC -- I can see that...

Thanks, appreciate the comeback. Michael

RAW??? Yikes!! 5-8 seconds, maybe more. No matter the size of the card, and at this point no matter the technology in CF cards, shooting in RAW on an Oly 5060 takes a while. I have one too; you want that level of encoding, you are going to pay for it (in time). Michael

Hello There is one post about puerto penasco from 2003 on this board (that I could find). Does anyone have experiences they could share about this location? I am trying to decide between Puerto Penasco and San Carlos for our first international excursion. Puerto Penasco's main advantage...

Thanks for the information. I will pass -- plus, I really don't want to take that amount of time to make a run to Florida.

Well, that is a major drag. Ok, thanks for the information. Michael

I am wondering if there are any dives sites / diving possibilities close to New Orleans, LA? I will be at a conference this November in the city, and was wondering about the possibilities. Thanks Michael
