Is there somewhere I can get what you use so I can try them on dry land? I'm actually looking into accupuncture. I can use this trip to see if worked :wavey:

Go to Walmart or large drug store and ask the pharmacist for Meclizine. It is non-prescription but kept behind the counter! It will cost about $5-6 for 100 pills. Try them on land to see if they have a sleepy effect on you. They do not make me nor others who use them drowsy. You may however react differently to them.

As for non-drug remedies...ginger works well. Get the candied version at whole food stores and chew on that. Ginger ale also helps as does ginger snaps.

Kamala, I may do this instead of Conzumel. I think its island fever and the call of the rainforest hitting me about now.

Also want to do Bali & Wakatobi in November. These might be the only two international trips the rest will have to do in my new back yard. :o

Sylvia.... too much work and not enough diving trips :wavey: Well, two international trips is great.. the more the better though. :lmao:
I've started working a couple of extra hours each week so I can build up some comp time. Two weeks worth and it's Fiji in November! :lmao:

Alright, my shopping has officially been curtailed and my penny jar opened - I have to figure out a way to be able to make it on this trip (I checked and the air fare is a killer from Vancouver though!)

Michelle

Its probably not much better from Hawaii. But, I figure, I pay for the trip now, and by the airline ticket can wait a few months. Not as hard on the bank account that way.

Great...plus you get more money off by paying early! Forces you to REALLY save for it as well!

NOTE:

I've had a number of people tell me that fall is too soon for a S. Pacific trip unless its the only trip they take all year and even then its still too soon.

SOOOOOOOOO I'm hoping to find a great deal at DEMA or I may need to push it out a bit to 2006 so people can adequately save for it. k

Hey gang...further clarification has been asked about the deposits so here goes...

Yes you'll need to be paid in full by the deadline which is Nov 1 in order to qualify for the early booking discount. (I offer the discount in order to generate the money I need for deposits and to make sure that we'll have enough interest in the trip and will not have to cancel it later.)

I will be also offering another incentive for paying your deposit early for this trip and that is a chance to win free nitrox. All deposits as well as bookings for the trip rec'd by Nov 1 will qualify for a chance to win FREE nitrox for the week. If there are only two deposits or payments rec'd then you'll have a 50/50 chance of winning free nitrox or the same amount off your nitrox certification if you are not certified yet.

If you push South Pacific back to 2006, any ideas on where to go to in the fall?
BVI's maybe... or if Grenada or the Caymans have recovered enough from Hurricane Ivan, do it then. Just some thoughts.

You are reading my mind....I am looking at Fiji...BVI...and Grenada for 2005 or early 2006!!! Too many cool choices! Got to grow membership so we can offer them ALL and still have enough people to make every trip a 'go'!!!! -ww

I'm definitely interested in this trip. Trying to talk a girlfriend of mine into going so that I have a roommate. Not up for paying the single supp! In the mean time, if anyone else is interested but holding back b/c of single supp/roommate dilemna, please let me know.

Also need to check on air fare and see if I can find any reasonable fares on CO. That may be a determining factor.

Will let you know asap.

I will be sending Kamala my check for this trip in time for the 01 Nov deadline. And I'm not looking to pay the single supplement. But then again, that is part of the beauty in this group. Kamala will pair us up with roommates.

Hope to meet you in April.

Ali

PS, I've found decent airfare from HNL on American. I have the best rates by going directly to the arilines web page.
