Bonaire time zone is GMT -4, which is the same as Eastern Daylight Saving Time (EDT)

I'm going to go ahead and set our PDCs to the current time so I don't forget after arrival and get wrapped up in the festivities.

Set them to salt water too, unless that's all you dive in and it's already done

If you are a USAA member, they have Valuable Personal Property insurance. Well worth considering I think.

I have all my cameras and associated gear (both land and all underwater stuff) covered (along with my guns and inherited watch hehe) for under $10 a month, with no deductible. Theft/Damage (flood!)/loss/anything... IJS...

See, here's why packing gear early doesn't pay for me.

After getting everything situated in the bag properly I got to thinking, last year in Cayman those spring straps seemed a little loose after a dive. So, I unpack everything to get to the fins. Go down to the workbench and take 1/2" off each spring and cover. That should be nice and snug without being too tight. while I'm looking at the fins it seems to me the end of my Blades tend to curl up quite a bit and they're a little long for packing so, I cut 1-1/2" off the end (back to the outside rib.) Once I start tinkering it's hard to stop. Realizing what I've done I decided it's time to repack everything in the bag so it's out of sight and I won't start tinkering with anything else.

WOW, When I flew back to Austin from Chicago yesterday, my 2 check bags was about 140 lbs. My roller carry weights in at 40lbs. On top of that I had backpack stuffed with work stuff.

Thanks for the reminder Gary. Of course, I had to get out the instructions to make the change!

I was just thinking the other day that I was bummed you can't make this invasion. One of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life was on your macbook last year

So people like Danny and I have more to carry for you?

Nope, I drag my own stuff!
