Unfortunately, some waited till it was too late to sign up for the Video and Editing seminar our this years' trip to the Coco Islands so we hope you won't miss the next seminar on the luxurious ship 'the Elite", part of the Emperor Divers Fleet for our trip to the Red Sea on Oct 28-Nov. 11th, 2009. Yes, I know this is way early but we have found that in order to get the best dates for most destinations, we have to plan well ahead. We will be diving the southern route where the best diving is and also to avoid the mulititude of boats up north. I couldn't attach the doc with the pictures so below is the text of the document on the trip we made up. In addition, there is plenty of info and pics on our website at World Films & Travel - dive trips, safari trips, and video footage Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.
