    On the phone throwing a fit with Verizon!

    Frustrating! I don't know if it works the same anymore, but I had to activate the international roaming on the phone before leaving coverage in the states. I think this was done by dialing *228?

    Summer availability

    Hi Gabe! My son and I dove with KD last March. Had a great time, and you guys will be my first call. I was mostly fishing for anyone with experience trying to get on a boat (any boat LOL) last minute. We get there on August 16th, but no idea when I'll be cut loose to dive. I'm *thinking* by...

    Summer availability

    [-]Hi [/-] Aloha All- I'm a Hawaii newbie (first visit last March), but with a kid at UH I'll be heading over a few times a year. I'm a Caribbean junkie, so I understand the weather and tourist seasons there, but no idea about Hawaii. What's summer like? I've read temps are stable year-round...

    Trip Report March 23-27 - Honolulu, Kaimana Divers

    Spent a week in Honolulu in March checking out my daughter's new college and squeezed in a couple days of diving with Kaimana. Communication with this shop was outstanding! Booking, reminders the night before, updates on pick up times... Gabe and Kevin really have their act together. This is an...

    Honolulu

    Heading to Oahu next week (daughter got accepted to UofH, Go Warriors!). I'm going to fit in a few days of diving while I'm there, in the process of setting up with Kaimana Divers. All my diving in the last 5 years has been done in Cozumel and I'm wondering how the boat experience compares...

    Whaa?! 59 degrees?

    Augustus - I was hoping I misread her text, but after checking online all the weather sites are reporting a low yesterday of 57 degrees, with a few showing a low this morning of 54! And yes, Tomfcrist 59 IS cold for the Caribbean! Call me what you want, but if I'm going to travel 12 hours...

    Whaa?! 59 degrees?

    Just came off working a big storm.... 40+ hours of OT, which I made bearable by mentally purchasing a ticket to Coz with the extra cash, and making mental lists of restaurants I will visit. :D Then I checked in with a friend and she said it was 59 degrees?! I know it's winter, but that just...

    why is Cozumel so popular? Bad experience or just over rated expectations?

    Can't blame you for choosing LC over Coz. I'll be chastised and tequila will be withheld on my next (of many) visits to Coz, but the Bloody Wall IS Bloody freakin' awesome! The reefs in Coz are truly amazing, and the drift diving easy, but I do enjoy hanging over a barrel sponge and watching...

    Benito Juarez Park renovation...

    At the risk of repeating daChief, I've had some reports that the restaurants and merchants around the construction site are really hurting... There's always a lot of talk on this forum about Wet Wendy's margaritas or fun evenings listening to live music at Woody's (I know there are many more...

    Gabi Loco is Open for Business!

    Here's an article that explains the mantle and has a photo of the shell. The Flamingo Tongue: A spotty snail with a secret shell | Odd Organisms

    Gabi Loco is Open for Business!

    Since the pattern and coloration of Flamingo Tongue shells are actually due to the mantle (which it wears over it's shell), once the nudibranch dies the shell is very plain. It does have somewhat of an unusual shape, but I wouldn't call this shell anything special. IDK, maybe they ARE laying...

    Did I make the wrong choice?

    This is your hard earned, and if you're like many here, over-planned vacation! ;) It's not rude to cancel reservations unless it's at the last minute, and you usually pay for that decision so I say it's still fair. Do what you feel comfortable with. Life is stressful enough, vacation never...

    Wet gear and overweight charges

    I've often heard about this mysterious policy over the years, never referring to any specific airline. I can tell you my first hand experience has always been leaving the US I've been stuck with the #50 limit. Coming home, I've often been overweight, never more than 10 or 12lbs, but over...
