and, is this a good trip for such a newbie like me? I have VERY little experience.
Wait, sorry, one more question - are you planning any trips to Australia or Galapagos next year?

1. Communications...I doubt there is any cellular coverage. I think that all they have is one landline which at $5/minute is essentially reserved for emergency communications.
2. With respect to newbies diving Fiji...I think that you'd do just fine diving wise...there is diving for all ages!
3. As far as what is planned for 2006....I am looking at PNG, Australia and Galapagos. I'm not certain what we may end up with but we are looking at all of these options!
What else can I answer for you???? -ww

Currently verizon offers a Global Phone that can be rented for such trips, not sure of the cost for rentals, but I just checked and Fiji is on their list of International Services... they show the base rate for calls at 1.29 per minute and I'm sure it's very limited to the coverage, but if it's something you really have to have it's an option...
Also, to note I do not work for Verizon so this is no plug for them I happen to work with different cellular providers through my work.

Re: the diving, it is perhaps the easiest diving imaginable. You fall off of the boat, you drift, you climb back on. There are some areas with strong current (e.g. The Supermarket off of Castaway Island) but the vast majority of the diving is extremely easy.

Grrrrr.. I can't find a decent connection from LAX back home. I guess I may lay up in LA (or somewhere else) for the night and travel home the next day.

I'm having trouble with that also, Dan. I prefer to use AA to bank those miles for the next Cozy trip but there is nothing to Orlando after noon-ish on the 5th. Looks like I'll be overnight in LA and flying out at 8:00 Sunday morning. I wonder how much trouble I can get in during 12+ hours in the LAX terminal? (That's a hypothetical question...no one needs to answer that!)Grrrrr.. I can't find a decent connection from LAX back home. I guess I may lay up in LA (or somewhere else) for the night and travel home the next day.

WW, I'm seriously considering this one... just wondering if maybe Sandy has a third kidney I could stick on eBay.... I thought about selling one of the kids (heck, I got 3!), but I think they are old enough to find their way back home again, so I don't think that will work.

I am having the same problem. I can't find a connection back to DC, so it looks like an overnight layover. We might just have a Post Fiji party in LAX.I'm having trouble with that also, Dan.
