Great, I will be working with Andy mostly to finish my DM class, but definitely will be hanging around after diving as well. Since I am without my wife this trip I am planning on doing a less expensive place to stay.Gordon, looks like we'll overlap with you a few days again this year. I'm bringing a group down to the Blue Angel April 21st through May 1st. Matt, it will be nice to meet you.
Our group is mostly neighbors... an informal club I guess. Our shop is Blue Angel, we usually bring a few to certify there and talk the rest into nitrox as the week progresses and they run out of bottom time. We'll have 10 rooms booked for our week this go round, 3 visits this year. June will be a family trip with myself and the other neighbor proselytizing diving, but we each have 4 rooms so that makes it another group trip. October is the guys who's wives don't dive trip, probably 10 rooms on that one as well.Great, I will be working with Andy mostly to finish my DM class, but definitely will be hanging around after diving as well.

You are bringing a group down? Shop or a club?
Sounds Great! I wish we had more dive friends by us. We were joking that we need to stop recommending the hotel, getting harder to get rooms sometimes. Hopefully we get to dive together. Like I said I am doing week 2 of DM class. So there will be diving, working with instructors in the pool and ocean and some other fun activities. I know there are some people who will book a block of rooms and then fill them and maybe the resort will comp the leader/planner.

I have been saying that for more than 20 years.We were joking that we need to stop recommending the hotel, getting harder to get rooms sometimes.
