What Am I Doing at Work?
I'm in that sweet spot right now, halfway between dive trips. Fond memories of Oceanblue Divers' inaugural trip to Nassau in early December are still fresh, and the group's next excursion to Cozumel at the end of February is close enough for excitement to start to build. Meanwhile, work is more stressful than ever, and tomorrow's high temperature is forecasted at 27 degrees. So thoughts of diving in warm, clear water are welcome indeed, even if they make me ask myself, "What am I doing at work?"
If you're asking yourself the same question, you're in luck -- a few open spots still remain on the upcoming Cozumel trip. If it's anything like last month's Bahamas adventure, we'll have a blast. On that trip, everyone had a marvelous time, even with a group as large as 31 people. Michael kept everything well organized, pairing up buddyless divers and getting the group together for nighttime meetings at the Daiquiri Shack. And on the daily bus rides to and from Stuart Cove's he never ran out of jokes (even if they were as likely to elicit a groan as a chuckle).
Cozumel in March will be fantastic. It's the tail end of peak season, and temperatures should be in a comfortable, non-humid range of 70-80. Diving visibility is excellent year-round, and water temperatures should be in the high 70s/low 80s. The 2007 Trip Planner in Scuba Diving magazine's latest issue called March diving in Cozumel "sublime" and "unbeatable." And if you've done any research on Cozumel at all, you know it's as fun topside as underwater. Especially with THIS group!
So if, like me, you see snow flurries outside your window right now, think hard -- but don't think long! -- about those last remaining spots on this trip. Don't find yourself at your desk on that first Friday in March, thinking "What am I doing at work?"
