Thanks guys....purple dotted lines....too funny. I'm trying in the US to combine 3 elements that might have to be broken into segments for this summer. The last two weeks more or less in August of this year I have penciled in a trip to your country. Basically the location was voted by my security personnel I employ and usually have the same background as myself being USN SEAL's or EOD. So wifes and children of these men will be in the group. Many are going to do their own thing but the guys that have been with me the longest sort of know to follow my lead. Sometimes doors open up for me that are usually closed and I'm always getting into some sort of trouble in a good way.

It's been awhile diving off the reef so some time will be dedicated to water since most are divers. I am actually visiting a friend who was also a friend to my best buddy Cozy Powell. who is no longer alive. I'm going to pull his leg about an Aussie Cannonball and see his reaction. Other than that I have a list of about 20 places or things the guys want to do or see. One wants to go 4-wheel driving out west in the outback near Derby. I might pass on that one...too old for getting stuck in the middle of nowhere. lol

I didn't even think about weather and that should have been first on the list. Is end of Aug a bad time? We usually stay in southern California or Hawaii as I don't like to travel internationally with a large group for safety concerns.

Thanks
