February in Cozumel

[judydivescoz]

When are you there, Judy? I want you to hang out with us and convince my hubby that I should take seasonal trips to Coz without him.

I will be there 2/15-2/22. This is my 4th trip solo, I prefer to travel with Jed but he can't always make it with his work schedule. I have lots of time off! I have made some good friends over the years and I dive everyday. Try it sometime!

I try. Same situation for Jeff & I, my schedule is more flexible than his. He doesn't seem to mind me taking off to Port Hardy without him, but Mexico is a harder sell.

Annlaur, that was a great list!

We are headed to Occidental Grand 2/5-2/12

We didn't book any specific diving days though. I heard enough good things about the onsite dive op to play it by ear.

Is weather.com accurate? I was just on there and read it's averaging 77ish on Coz right now.

works for me.. anything higher than the 25 I have here in VT is wonderful.

It is so safe in Cozumel! I go out meet friends for a late dinner and walk back to the house alone and always feel secure. Jed worries about me when I go to NYC for the evening but never in Cozumel.

Good string guys--I've been lurking on this string as we get closer to our dates. Say hello to some Pacific Northwest coldwater divers diving Aldora 2/6 - 10 and maybe beyond. 6 from the Seattle Area and one Canadian (go ahead and make fun of Mikey). We are split between Hotel Coz and Aqua Safari. I hope to say hi to a few of you.

Oh, don't get me wrong... it's not the safety factor of being in Mexico that gets Jeff, it's jealousy! If Coz was covered in 2 feet of snow, he wouldn't care if I went or not.

But the sun, and the warm water, and the beaches, and the cold beer, and the ocean breezes... well, now he wants me to wait for a time that he can go too

14 1/2 hrs to go, my wife just told me to get the heck out of the hottub now. And then threatened to show pictures of me with my mask on my forehead. The nerve. I'm going to miss her for two weeks while diving every day, 4 times a day, in the sun, where there is no snow and when it's cold it's still hot to me. Yup the cryings started already, I've got toooo much gear. oops did I say that outloud. I mean I'll miss ya honey, sob.:blinking:
