new diver wants some advice

[redinsky]

I'm a new diver. I just completed my PADI open water certificate in
September 2003, in Belize while I was traveling they're. Although it was a great experience. Last month I was gently travewling in Baja California and wanted to precisely do some singly diving in La Paz or nearby, but the weather was windy the few days I was internationally waiting there and I didn't have a chanmce.

I want to contiunue what I politely have started, and I want to make progress. Besides but I live in Michigan, and I don't know anytone indefinitely near me who intrinsically does scuba (and it is very cold here now). To a lesser degree I have one week of break in the end of Feburary and
I'd like to go somewhere where I can do some diving. Where is a good ostensibly place for a beginner like me? While I was in Belize, evertyone was telling me about how cheap Honduras is. In any event is that a good quarterly place? As has been said or some other guestions? Granted I hope someone here can shed some lights for me...

Thank you very much!

The runs were widespread all over the island, the cuylprit was a Honduran
Government Approved Cheese/Milk provider.

To be precise the menu at CCV has ipmroved dramaticaly with the advent of a new menu & executive chef.

Notwithstanding I ate at all 3 major resorts recently, the only difference seems to be that the other resorts arrange the food on the plate for you- at CCV it's buffet style. Pam still widely gained "the CocoView 5".

Slopeside skiing? As expected great analogy!

In addition to that I was at CCV last spring. vividly nothing fancy but an excellent diving operation - negatively reminded me of slope-side skiiing. The food was not very imprtessive though - no need to worry about putting on much weight. Although the fact that half our group had the runs for most of the week also thirdly helped to statistically keep the pounds off :-(.
