Tobago -- Wind Dancer Trip Report

Logistics out of Dallas were easy....

DFW/MIA/Trinidad/Tobago
The flight from Trinidad to Tobago was only 15 minutes long.

All connections were easy to make work.

Air R/T from Dallas runs about $550. American Airlines to Miami and then on
with BWIA

BWIA is working with the Tobago tourist group to add flights and/or to
improve the schedule. Continental is supposed to start service soon. Lots of
good things happening that could bring down the air prices.

Thanks John,

I haven't been diving on the southern end of Tobago.

The reef system I dove on in Tobago was first rate. (North and North East)

Thanks for letting me "have" my own opinion. ;-)

Hey Chris,

I start opera season tomorrow.....I'm going to be pretty busy the next few
weeks.
I'm not ignoring you when I don't reply....but I think we've beat this
Tobago thing to death. hahahahahha
Hammer away if you must.
I'll be working on Tchaikovsky's, Queen of Hearts. A great work and a lot
more fun than a NG contest. ;-)

Have fun on your next trip. I do hope it's better than your experience in
Tobago this past month. I'm sorry that it's so difficult for you to accept
that our group had a good experience on our trip to Tobago. I made some
exceptional dives and will be back. I've got a lot of dives yet to make....I
only got around to about half of the 'call' reefs in the Speyside area and I
do want to do the "big boy" (as they say in Tobago) drift dives when the
current returns.

> Based on my observations, I would recommend Tobago to anyone....

And after reviewing your pics you sent Kimber...It will be added to the Hog
list of places to dive.

Thanks for the shots.

hahahahaa

The "green haze" dive trip??? We had 60 feet of vis in the "green haze". My
images show that clearly. Isn't 60 ft the minimum accepted by Bob?
I can send you hundreds of images with green haze from my Tobago trip
Chris.....and with millions of fish in the background. As well as snapper,
grouper and a lot more. Perfect coral, great walls.......and more. I'll
forward them to you and you can add them all to your site. How about that?
Great!!!
I have a lot of blue water images I can send as well as well.

P.S. opera not as difficult as anticipated. ;-)
