Hi Kamala, it shows you need flight info from me but I sent it to both TravelBunny and trips@singledivers.com, just checking that it has been received. Thanks Karen


Yes we do have that. We'll fix your profile! Thanks! -ww


I haven't seen your flight details yet, but I haven't been in my SD email for about an hour

I'll check it and let you know

For all of you who are making this trip, "t.j." - my bride* asked me for a list of the folks going, and their pictures so she could start associating faces and names.

I put this file together from avatars and pictures in profiles, and one sent to me, and posted it here:

Link to Holbox / Cozumel trip members and pictures


Kevin - aka kkutexas, send picture or post it, and I'll re-do the file.

Thanks for doing this. I am never good at remembering names - faces, yes, but names??? Esp when we mostly think of the person we know from a message board by a screen name. Looking forward to meeting everybody VERY soon!
Back after a long absence - whew, too busy at work!

I don't think the Van times have been solidified. But we're planning to be back to the airport around 1pm. We'll be in Isla Mujeres. If you're looking for something to do and want to dive with us or just hang out let me know.

I do not see a videographer listed for this trip. Does the charter for the Holbox portion do a video for purchase?
I can tell I have waited too late to figure out which camcorder & housing to get in time for this trip. Don't want to rush my purchase just to have it in time and then regret what I picked.
I am such a procrastinator! :D

We'll probably have to wait until WW & Fingrabber return from Flower Gardens. I looked through the info and couldn't find it. There are only a few listed on the Holbox website, and they're all within spitting distance of each other.

Probably "El Motel Ningún Dice"..... :D

Regarding the squeezing of folks into the vans.... I'm happy to accommodate and be a good sport... just a disclaimer... I am a 'wide butt' diver... so while some women tend to be smaller... Not me!! :D


However... I DO make a REALLY comfy pillow... (anyone wanna sit on my lap?) and, I'll only bite if asked....

OOoops... I hope I haven't over stepped some line of propriety......


Can't wait to meet you all and get under water!!! :D
