I'll be at Ginnie on those days with my family so my schedule is a little screwy. Of course I'm going to sneak in some diving while we're there though.

I'd be open for dives at Ginnie or Little River early morning (8am ish) on Saturday and/or Sunday if either of those work for you.

I'm flying in from Switzerland on the 25th sept
Going to be in NFL (North Florida) around those days. Cow, Peacock, Ginny, Morgans, Edwards etc etc.. 8th-25th Oct.

If you don't find a buddy let me know. There's 3 to 5 of us going to be hooking up, I'm sure we can bust it up into 2 and 3 man teams depending on who all is there on x dates.

I'll be in NFL Oct. 9th through 15th. Same as chrisp above, with family so diving here and there, but usually carve out one good day for diving and try to hit as many mornings as possible since my crowd sleeps in. I do solo dives but love to get my Peacock dives in or Madison with a buddy.

Let's stay in touch. TommyB, I fly into Geneva and N. Italy alot so would be nice to meet you and maybe get a dive in one day across the pond one day.

Found a cool cave about 60 km's from where I live (nyon/commugny ) area. I live about 15 mins from Geneva Airport
Right in the back yard of a fondue resteraunt called Chez Betty. I forget who on here told me about it, will check PM's so I can give them credit.
Only issue is, looks to be only divable during the winter due to the extreme out-flow from the ice melt.

Does not look like much of a flow

Very cool. I just got myself out of a trip that would have taken me down to Lyon, France (I usually fly into Geneva cause it's so much cheaper). Will definitely be back probably early December, would love to check that cave out.

I'm staying at River Rendezvous 9th through 15th so if we don't get a dive in maybe have a beer and chat. Would love to dive some Swiss Cave.

as an update to my post, just in case, I will not be around as originally posted/expected as I have to return to Brasíl on the 7th.
Good diving folks.
