It was great to getting a buddy to dive with that could make an hour plus dive with me. Your skills are exceptional for what I call a vacation diver. Of course most vacation divers don't have 400+ dives.
 
Thanks and same! Was great having a buddy who was as good in the water as you are!!!! Still cant believe how many sharks, eels and turtles we saw lol!

Hey @uncfnp, I left a six of Modelo Negra's in the fridge and a bit of Herradura on the shelf. Feel free if there is any left when you get here. :wink:
You are a true gentleman! Cheers! :thumb::acclaim:

But alas. No beers. :(

It's awful seeing a line drawn through us now because we just got home sadly!
23 dives even through choppy seas and 1 port closure day.... I'm back to being a dreamer again until next time.....

You are a true gentleman! Cheers! :thumb::acclaim:

But alas. No beers. :(

Awww...sorry about the beers. Looks like somebody's been workin' on the Herradura, too. :) Thought you might have a chance 'cause Magda & David didn't have guests for a couple weeks and they bugged out of town for a little vacation. Oh well, one of these days we'll have to share a shot & a beer face to face. Enjoy your trip and don't let Jorge be too tough on the newbies. :cheers::bounce::bounce::bounce:
 
No problems. I am really not much of a drinker. That will probably last the trip! We are their only guests for the next 6 days. Getting a lot of extra attention from Millie.

Based on your recommendation Eric tried a Modelo today at lunch. It was a winner.

And Jorge is already testing my limits. Gave me 1000 psi in my second tank. I said I was flattered but humor me and let me have at least half a tank! Viz is down and there was quite a thermocline on the first dive at Columbia Deep but it was a good first day.
 
Having a great trip! In Coz now, about midway through our trip, weather has been perfect. Nice to see the Lion fish almost gone from the regular dive sites, still manage to snag a straggler here or there, but nothing like 3-5 years ago...

Our Divemaster mentioned today, that they have had a very large influx of people move here from the mainland, and crime is increasing pretty dramatically (his point of view being a 50something native of the island). Particularly, "banditos" on motorcycles. He told us several stories about them snatching bags and loose phones, etc while driving by on a motorcycles. In most cases the crime is targeted at the locals, but some tourists have also been robbed. In one case a local girl had her purse/bag taken from her while on her bicycle. This caused her to have a broken arm, and a pretty bad case of road rash on her face. I understand that this has been exacerbated by a large number of police being fired due to corruption after the last mayor was finally ousted.

Sigh... seems like nothing lasts... We've been more observant, not staying out as late, but haven't altered our habits too much yet. Just be safe out there!
