Sorry it took me so long to post! The show has been great but they have been running JR & I ragged with classes on new dive locations, training techniques and equipment repair. We have spent just a short time in between on the show floor looking at new products. In the time we spent we did see several of the accessory lines and ordered some new stocking stuffer items! Tina met with the PADI Regional Manager and got all the new PADI training materials update. There is now a book and DVD for the Boat Diver & DPV Diver courses. This should make those courses much more interesting and fun for everyone!
We saw a great presentation and got lots of info from one of the Great White Shark guys! We are going to see the other shark companies today and make a decision on which one we are going with. We hope all of you will be able to join us for the trip, it will be fantastic!
We have done a class the proper way to internally clean and tumble tanks, a class on the new EVE dive store management software, the PADI Standards update seminar, the PADI Risk management seminar and JR attended the PADI e-marketing seminar. While he was doing that, they talked me into going to a video taping session that PADI was having for PADI Pros to tell why they became a Pro....the winner receives $5000.
The best news of the trip so far (at least for us) is that I won a trip for two to Bonaire! We were entered in a drawing where they gave away lots of Bonaire items like t-shirts and free dives, but mine was the grand prize... 5 days, 4 nights with unlimited shore diving at Divi Resort! We are excited and looking forward to the trip sometime in 2008!
We're off this morning to more time on the show floor and then JR is going to learn how to repair the entire line of Sherwood Regulators in a 4 hour marathon session with the Sherwood team!

I'm soooo glad that you all won trips!! And I'm glad that you won a Bonaire trip for two! Tell JR that now he will be able to dive it for himself and see why me and Carol are so excited about that place. Congrats to JR for learning to fix regs.
