So, departed with my injury from Halifax N.S. on the 16th Jan. Got to the airport, got the preboarding and assistance arranged for the entire flight(s). Continental was very accommodating. Head to security. Remember, no carry on allowed. Put my camera bag on the thing, "whats with the book bag?", I replyed, it's a camera designated case, as I placed the printed list of rules for flight with it. They didn't like it, but did accept it. They went through EVERYTHING, even my wallet(cash). I also wore my photog vest, pockets loaded. Scanned our hands with the wand and cloth normally used on electronics, 1/2 hr later, we got to customs, answered the usual questions. 5 min. G took his laptop in case, and his newly acquired "man purse"! I must admit, it was very pleasant not to have carry on to lug about.

It was at Karpata, and my friend was the divemaster on the boat. The guy had a massive heart attack in the water, and he was dead upon getting him on the transom. Very very sad.

Jim, Give Lutty our love and a hug (tell him it's from Judy ) Also tell him we'll be back May 8-22, so we'll be looking him up! He'd been to Aruba last time we were there and caught cold, so no diving. This time for sure! Judy & Ron
