Update

[Tavi]

Hi All,

Well we're all getting pretty exited here. My wife (Debbielou) and son have completed their classroom and poolwork. They'll do one more pool session just to make sure their up on their skills before we leave for Grand Bahama in two weeks. They'll be doing their C-dives there and who knows how many more. I know I plan on diving as much as I can, and getting some more training. I've purchased my equipment,and my son has bought his.I had a lot of input from you people, so thanks! Debbielou can't seem to find a BC or Reg that she likes well enough to buy. She still has a few to check out. But it looks like she'll be renting on this trip.
It's going to be a great trip! We couldn't get a flight out on the day we were supposed to return home, so we have to stay two days longer. Isn't that terrible? hehee

I'm looking forward to seeing the looks on their faces when we drop beneath the waves to the shallow reef as a family for the first time. I hope to get it on film.

Of coarse we'll let you know all about it when we return.

Thanks, Tavi
