Hey there!

> How was the trip?

Better than fantastic.

My son Josh went diving with me a BUNCH of times.  We did Palancar
Gardens, the wreck,
El Paso De Cedral, a nice wall dive and a few others together.  I'd have
to check and
my trip log is on my other laptop :^)  He was wearing his own AL80 which
weighs almost
half as much as he does...  He ended up with a minor ear infection which
we treated
and stayed out of the ocean by his own choice for most of the middle
week we were
there so he'd get better.

I also took my younger son Jonathan out for a couple dives off the
beach.  This was
his first year going out with me.  He's 5.5 and so he's starting out a
year later
than Josh did but his overall water skills are great.

What I heard wasn't that 4 has been lost in the past 2 months but that
this
one was the 5th one this year.  4 in two months would be a lot but could
just be coincidence as well.

Anyhow, I'll provide much more complete details as soon as I can.
