Great news! it will be great to all get together for a few dives and a few beers in the evening. Really looking forward to meeting you all.
 
 I have found the dive company that operate from our hotel, they are going to send some prices across. I don't know what they are like, it would be nice to find someone who has dived with them.

Hi Wossa, welcome aboard, I'm looking forward to our dives!    :D  
 
 He also said to book your dives online through their website where you'll get a 15% discount of the posted prices.  Down in Cozumel, if you book more dives, use cash (not Mexican Peso's) and you'll get 10% discount (I need to verify that) as opposed to full price with credit cards.
 
 I have a client who is at the Iberostar now, diving with Dressler, so I'll hopefully have some more info in a week or so when he gets back.
 
 Now's the hard part, waiting for a month before we get down there.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

There is only one person who can take you on bellagio.
 
 We should all take up a collection for her single supplement, as it doesn't seem fair that she should be left behind because they want to "extort" yet more $ for her to go as a single.
 
 Think of all the terrific photo opportunities.
 
 I think it's worth it!!!  :D

As much as I would love to join you, it's just not in the budget so soon after the trip this month.
 I was talking to Ken and he almost had me talked into it, but I would still love to squeeze another trip in this fall and if I selfishly go to Mexico, that just won't be feasible.

Well time will tell for me, but you guys being there has up the temptation to just do it...but work is the main factor.....and maybe a price drop too   ;)

Thanks mate, me too, just counting the days down now.
 
 It would be great to see what feedback your employee gives when he/she returns.
 
 See you soon
