My wife and I have been diving for about 8 years. We used to go to Cozumel 2 or 3 times a year but then we had our first child together and we have decided on our first dive trip since he was born (18 months old). We are wanting to try something new. Now I am pretty much open to anything new and love to night dive and find all the sharks and big fish I can but she is plenty content just floating down a wall with a divemaster close by when I start going through the swimthroughs and get lost in my play. I have posted a few times and have said that we have free tickets anywhere American flies in the Contenintal US, Mex, or Carribean. After many recommendations I was set on Bonaire but the drive and dive did not tickle her fancy and she is a bit nervous about going somewhere new without a group. She is worried about security and our first try at going on our own using a compass did not fare so well. I think she would be fine but when describing what I have read she was like I want a DM or someone who knows what they are doing. She is not interested in diving as much as I am and refuses to do anymore night dives. Now she did say that a liveaboard sounds like fun; although it is a bit more expensive than we were wanting to deal with, I think that may end up being the best option for me as I will get to dive all I want, and certainly get in some night dives with people I meet on the trip. Now I was thinking maybe I could meet someone that was going on a trip that is in a similar circumstance and we can buddy up and go together. We are pretty much open as to when/where we go but I think the tickets have to either be booked or used by April 1st(getting confirmation soon). Our anniversary is at the end of March so I was thinking that may be a good time to go. So that being said we are in our early mid 30's and in the North Dallas area and am just posting to see what kind of response I get. Feel free to PM with any questions or suggestions. If you already have a trip planned that meets our requirements and would like some company let me know that as well. We have dove in Bahamas, Coz, Florida, and Cayman and would probably prefer something new.
Thanks and sorry for the long post,
