The week was fantastic.  We just did the shore diving. Every dive was first
rate and were never disappointed. Alice in Wonderland, The Hilma Hooker,
and The Town Pier at night were my favorites. The house reef was Bari which
is loaded with fish of all kinds. The Sand Dollar was clean, responsive to
our needs, and plenty comfortable. Washinton Slagbaii National Park, and
The Donkey Sanctuary are must see attractions.  All the restaurants we went
to were fine. The travel to and from is a pain but well worth the effort.  
Do not let the car rental company give you less than the agreed upon
vehicle. They tried to stick with one of the ultra mini minivans and
finally gave us the pick up truck which you really need for the week.
