If you arrive at noon, what is your planned itinerary? I would think the hiring would take a little, getting gear together and getting out to a site to dive. Do you know the way to any of the dive spots around there from the rental place? I will probably phone Gibbon as i leave that morning from Venice and see what the deal is with you both around noon. Do you know which areas you are aiming at diving at, King Springs, Gator Hole, 3 sisters?? DSW, did you get the regs in/together yet?
IF i got out of Venice around 10 i would think that i could be there just after 12.30, might be a little later i reckon depending on traffic of course. Who is going at the moment, just DSW and Gibbon? I will post a little on the Venice trip see if there are any takers. How long do you plan on being there, a few hours, til sundown or just an hour or so?
I have so many questions when it comes to trips like these, but would rather know that assume, you know what they say when you assume.
