Hi everyone! This sub forum has been an amazing resource for info and ideas! This sub forum rocks! Chrsti and MoodieJeff have been better than ANY travel agents!
My wife and I are heading to Cozumel for the very first time in 16 days (June 13-20) and I was just wondering, will I need to bring my Dry Suit, 200 Gram Thinsulate undersuit, hood, 400 gram socks, wicking layer and Argon bottle? Can I get an Argon fill?
Just kidding.
Seriously though my questions are for the experienced Cozumel travelers.
1) One thing I am always worried about is tipping. I'm Italian so tipping is sort of a genetic thing that must happen on a regular basis. What are average tips here and there? How much do you tip the Bellman, how much do you tip the Dive Operator/Dive Master? What would be considered generous but not over the top for various services.
2) Where do you exchange currency? Do you have to? Will the good ol' green back do the trick?
3) I've read all about the restaurants but not one of the reviews mentioned the one at our hotel (The Presidente) is it good?
4) Is there anything I can do to make the next 16 days go by faster? I'm thinking of heavy sedation.
Oh well, I'm excited so if there any folks who can give me some ideas please chime in.
Thanks!
