Yes, if a 1 mile walk is alright. Esso gas station north of resort has a food mart like USA. I've sent WW a monolouge of hints that she's reviewing, probably post soon.

I just sent in the $50 payment for the Turtle Tagging Research Trip. Hopefully I can name some for the Grandkids!

Hi Kamala... how does the turtle tagging work? Do the researchers join us for one of our days of diving.. all three dives? What will the non-taggers be doing, if that is the case? Diving off a different boat?

Hi Rosa, Last trip turtle researchers jump onboard our dive boat for the day. If you followed along diving you could see the capture, during surface interval tagging, documentation and release. Not sure what will happen if not interested in tagging?

Thank you for the info! I'm sure Kamala will clarify the rest. I;ll most likely do it. Just want to know what the "other option" is.
