i did this in december, 1995 – ! at the time i thought i would be back in a few years, but since it never happened, i’m glad i appreciated it fully at the time.
went with the aggressor fleet, a half dozen crew & about a dozen divers. can’t get much closer to nature than that ! well. ok, there was that time my buddy & i drifted far from the others, and there we were, floating in aquatic wilds & waves while they looked for us. i wasn’t worried, but my buddy was. i think he had the right idea ;-)
so many sharks, i often opted to spend time looking at the little things instead. then there was the dive i chased a school of hammerheads. narcosis will do that to a person ;-)
the landside tours were just as enjoyable. quite a trip; not the party-party stuff of the caribbean, but a more intense experience. bone up on darwin ahead of time.
we also had a side trip to the amazon basin for a few days, so we got to see quito, guayaquil, and the interior of ecuador as well. what a country !
quito: we walked into a bar, and monday night football was on the big screen tv. at least in the islands there were no pizza huts ;-)
i forgot to mention, i oicked up a short engagement a few months back. worth it ? oh, yes & no. but it’s not permanent, or even reliable. that’s consulting for you ;-)
