Hey folks,
My 18 year old daughter is taking her classes with Divers Supply (I guess Jack or Susan) here in Atlanta this weekend June 20th.
We want to take her to FLA for checkout dives, salt water only, and are looking for ideas to get her checked out, and have some semblance of an enjoyable experience.
My criteria:
Reefs, not wrecks. I think wrecks might intimidate her a little too much. But I need to talk to her.
Closer to GA instead of further away. West Palm is about as far as I want to go. I grew up there (yes I am Rustie's son) and thought inshore checkout, and Breakers or whatever, along with the possibility of a night dive at the bridge might be good.
We are going to drive, unless airtran has a sale, and take my 20 year old and 14 year old as well. Currently Airtran would be $1K ATL/PBI, but if it went on sale, it would save is $300-$400 which would make it doable.
Any thoughts, idea's, comments, anecdotes, spam, jokes, are welcome and appreciated. I have been told I am crazy by better people than you so have at it!
Have a great Sunday, and thanks in advance!
