Well, I guess I knew it, but my first appointment with an orthopedic surgeon resulted in a diagnosis of "your knees suck". So did he, but the second opinion from a much more professional Doc still means I will have my first knee replacement in a couple months, and the other as soon as I can. He...

Anybody found any discounts for Orbitz (or others)? That extra $100 off flight and hotel always made the December trip a little easier....

Curious about how the water clarity is at Beaver. Anybody up for some weekday dives at North Damsite Shore Park sometime in the next few weeks?

OK, I am old, and started SCUBA late, and know people that have been bent and stuff, so I take it pretty seriously. But PADI offering a Zombie certification? That just seems over the top stupid, and a grab for cash. Am I wrong?

Going to CCV for the first time in a couple weeks, and though I have read a few hints here and there, I would prefer details. Should I bring US cash? Can I charge a lump sum tip on a credit card at the end of the week? Get local currency at an ATM someplace? Should I tip the dive boat crews each...

Christmas Eve is a Monday... Anybody else going to be in town? Meet up?

On my summer trip I hope to stay a little longer, and have a non diving day or 2. If I take a taxi to San Gervasio, or El Cedral, or Punta Sur, do I need to pay them to wait for me, or will there be another waiting for a fare when I get done? Thanks for any advice.

Anybody up for a couple dives Sunday, or late Saturday? Vis isn't quite so bad below 40 at the Visitor Center....

Had a great day on the lake with Aquasports/Diventures Springfield group on the big boat from Lost Bridge Marina. Visibility, on the other hand... :-( Actually not too bad in places down to the thermocline (25'), after that, gets bad fast, past 50' virtually 0. Best we found was at the bluff at...

Just booked my summer trip, Sweet deal through Orbitz with air and hotel! I went ahead and took their trip insurance, in case of hurricane or something. Way cheaper than DAN trip insurance, which I usually buy, and never use. Anyone ever used it? I feel a little more comfortable, in case...

I stayed at Suites Bahia for a week from Dec. 21-28, dove with Blue XTSea, and ate like a king. These are my thoughts…. Hotel: Got an amazing deal through Orbitz, and upgraded to an ocean view room. It was great, view was awesome, right in the middle of things, and watched my pier for the dive...

Thanks to Orbitz and Dandy Don's helpful links, got a deal I couldn't pass up! I'll be in an ocean view room at Suites Bahia, Dec. 21 -28. Still deciding on dive op. Hope to meet some SB'ers while there, can't wait to to be back on La Isla :)

May have a good deal on airfare + a week at Suites Bahia. Anyone have any experience at Bahia? I like the location, as I am wanting to stay in town this trip. Would just have to figure out a dive op. TIA for any feedback!

Going with a group from my LDS June 6-13 to Buddy Dive. Just started diving last year, been to Cozumel twice and just got my Nitrox Cert. Can't wait!

Hoping to go back to Cozumel in July. I've enjoyed my previous stays at SCC, but would like to try a non a/i stay in town. Aqua Safari has some attractively priced packages at both Safari Inn and Suites Bahia. Not looking for fancy digs, but I need my wi-fi. Anyone have any experiences with the...
