got Shirley and my tickets bought we are going to be heading into Cancun on Friday if anyone wants to meet there and share some taxi fees we will be getting in around 4:00 pm. It is very easy and usually cheaper to go this route. Shirley says i can even use her FW reel with the pink knotted line on it if i want. WOO HOO!!!!!!!!is she good to me or what? I can't wait to get back in the cave!!!!!!!!!!!
Some areas are unknown because no one has ever ventured forth, Some are unknown because no one has ever returned.
Thanks for the DVD I just watched it and ummm WOW!!!!!! Good luck on your trip.

here are some questions from Sandy that I will answer here:
Will you be sending any information regarding what to bring in the way of “extra” equipment. So far, it sounds like I need to bring yoke valves and/or DIN/yoke converters? yes yoke alum 80s bottles only.
I have all the line and safety regs already. no need for anyone to bring "extras" that I know of
• # of stage regs to bring? 2, one to use and a spare for part or backup
• I am guessing we should bring a spare reg just in case? .see above
• What should we bring in the way of spools or reels other than a couple of safeties? only what you need: I will have reels for the push
I know I will not at the end of the line but I am not sure what you may need from me elsewhere in the system (and I assume the beginning if anything)? There are leads to look for even in the first part of the cave
• # of primary lights and/or batteries to bring - as it relates to potential BT each day. bottom time should be about 2 -3 hours per day. I will have a backup primary light, no need for every one to carry a extra primary but a few wouldn't hurt
Also, I have read that water temps are low 70s and high 70s. Do you know what temps will be? about 70-72
It may make a difference in diving wet or dry? can you handle the cold and how long do you want to stay in. some of us will stay in 4-6 hours so we will be diving dry.
