You think I could leave out the part where the refrigerator breaks and I have to buy a new one? :? Other than that, looks like a great time!

Brings back lots of fond memories. We snorkeled Thunderball Grotto on Staniel Cay in 2011. I recommend you view their episode #39 on youtube, entitled "We're sinking". Very instructive on how quickly and easily things can go from fine to dire, and how to respond to this particular type of emergency.
