    Who has travel plans for the August 21 Total Solar Eclipse?

    Wife and I will be in Douglas, Wyoming. Plan is to get out of town as close to centerline as possible. I've seen 2 in my lifetime and don't plan to ever miss another. Bucket list opportunity for ANYONE who has never seen a TOTAL eclipse of the sun. Western US should be clear and dry that time of...

    NASA Treasure Map -Cooper's Treasure Show?

    Just watched the first episode and in keeping with Rred's comments I am, too, less than hopeful. The "scene" between the Son and the Dad at the Dad's house looked somewhat rehearsed -- especially in light of the previews at the end of the show showing them working together in future episodes...

    Our Bonaire Travelogue

    And after the dive, you can relax in the shade of a Palm tree enjoying your sandwich and a cold drink.

    4 days pure diving - Is Ambergris Caye the best choice?

    Been to Ambergris twice. 1 week each time. Dove both trips. Every dive looked the same. For all I know we went to the same location all 20 dives. It's a one and done destination as far as diving goes. Spent a week at Glovers (Off the Wall) and loved it. ND wife thought it a bit rustic, but...

    Walk 12 blocks north on Melgar (main waterfront Boulevard) and there's a 2 story thatched roof place on the water called El Bungalow. It has a nice, small quiet beach next to it on the north side. Open to public, but safe, no currents -- and you've got food, drink and banos for your convenience...

    Dolphins

    Yup - That's been my experience as well. Whenever dolphins appear down there -- an El Norte (or something besides calm and sunny) is probably on the way. At least that's what my old wife says. ;)

    Dinner options near Casa Mexicana

    Just go to La Choza. 2 Blocks north, 2 blocks east. Greats Margs, attentive service, reasonable prices, abundant portions -- served hot and fast. Reliable local option with the least amount of brain damage after a long day of travel. It's always our first destination after checking into Casa...

    Cozumel trip report and pictures - August 2016

    Thank you for saving me the trouble of EVER bringing a camera to Cozumel. If anyone wants to know what I've seen (or might see) there, all I need to do is send them to your link. Great photos, great finds. Batfish all over the bottom. Who knew?

    Snuba in Cozumel?

    As old pilots like to say: "It ain't the odds, it's the size of the bet."

    Getting from Airport to Condos in the northen areas - Do the airport enforced "collectivos" go there

    Apologies for the hijack, but mind if I ask where you are staying? The ND (but avid snorkeler) wife and I spent 2 weeks at Casa Mex last January and were thinking of doing the same thing for a longer stay next winter. We looked at one place right on the water which had a nice protected...

    Juliet sailing for first liveaboard?

    I've been aboard with them 8 times over the past 10 years -- most recently in April. It's a round bottom schooner, so it will do some rockin' and rollin' during transit but everyone adjusts after a few hours. Juliet typically moors in a sheltered location for diving, meals and sleeping. They...

    Bonaire- a truly unforgettable experience

    If you don't mind me asking, when was the last time you had a DPT Booster shot? I try to get one every 10 years and now I'm a bit concerned. Thanks!

    COZ Coffee Roasting Company?

    +1 on that place as well. We spoke with the owner and they are affiliated with "La Bendicida" which is located in Playa Del Carmen on 34th/10th. Beans come from the Veracruz region and are roasted on the premises. We also brought a bag home 2 weeks ago and wish we'd grabbed more. Owner and...

    Dollar Exchange Rate and Peso Prices

    I'm in Coz right now. The Cambio on 30th/Juarez (and pretty much everyone else) is quoting 16.35. Mega will convert to dollars at 17.60. Prices in pesos are the same as they've always been. We caught a cab to downtown from just outside the airport for $3. A 6 liter bottle of water from Mega was...

    What I'm looking forward to ...

    Hearing that glorious sound of "clanging" tanks in the morning and looking out over a perfectly flat sea with a rich cup of coffee in my hand.

    And one can almost guarantee that the 79 folks ahead of him don't work full time for a demanding boss! ;)
