@Juardis: You don't need to do a full mask flood or a mask remove/replace in order to clear up a fogged mask.But thinking about it further, I should always wear daily wears since there is always the chance I'll need to clear my mask if for no other reason than it fogged up or I want to practice.
Just let a little water into the mask, look down so that the tiny amount of water washes over the lenses, then clear the water out of there. Easy. No water should ever touch your contacts.
FWIW, I was going to suggest that you use daily-wear contacts for diving.
I don't blame you for being a little anxious about a checkout dive on vacation. After all, you've just been recently certified.
Honestly, I wouldn't worry too much about any skill checks that the resort operator may incorporate into the checkouts. Funnily enough, a newly certified diver is better equipped to successfully complete such checkouts than an out-of-practice diver who was certified years ago. Those are the folks that the resort operator are really concerned about.
