Well, you'll see my wife and I there tomorrow morning. Hope I make it there in time...
Man, there are things you'd never know about IDC unless you sign up.. first of all, the IDC crewpack is hell expensive, hammering your wallet at just over $400 incl tax. It's also HUGE. 1 crew pack is 1 box. 2 binders (workbook & notorious instructor's manual) that are as thick as a full sized webster's dictionary, 3 books that you'll probably never read, and a bunch of slates for classes. Oh, you also get a PADI backpack that's actually quite decent.
The other thing is.. there are 16 knowledge slammin' reviews you must complete prior to IDC. That's quite alot, especially since I didn't know about it 'till I signed up, and recieved my crewpack a week ago.
Well, anyway, it's going to be 2 weeks of hard work.. and then I'd be certified to do some more hard work! The dive season's just around the corner!
