I have reservations for the first week of March. We are still planning on going. They will need our support in the wake of this disaster. Of course, this is assuming that they are able to take guests by then. If they can't we will hopefully find another hotel that CAN take us. We will be diving as well. The only thing that will keep us off the island (provided we can get to it, which I am 99% sure will be the case by then) is somebody "in the know" convincing me that we will just be "in the way". That seems pretty unlikely.
I am going to email Jeanie from Caribe Blu today, but I don't expect her to answer for a few days at least. I hope to be able to send something to help them get back on thier feet quicker. If I could get the time off work I would go down and grab a hammer, but alas...

Thanks to all of our friends that have inquired about us all in Cozumel - all of our people made it safely through WILMA!
5 of our 6 boats have been cleaned and ready to go diving!
Electricity has been slowly returning to Cozumel - as is the phone service. This I think is amazing!
The people of Cozumel are also AMAZING - they are all helping to clean the debris from the streets.
Right now there is NO travel to Cozumel - even Alejandra who is in Mexico City right now - has been denied being allowed to return. Ale is trying to get a special permission to return.
For the hotel - once the cleaning is complete - and a few doors are finished along with the glass replaced - we will be ready for guest!
Much of the work will depend on availability of supplies, which I hope will not slow us down.
At the hotel and dive shop - all of our people, divemasters, cooks to Captains (even Victor) are helping clean up - we are fixing lunch for our workers - so we are feeding about 20 people each day.
So far I do not think anyone is going hungry - but we have to stand in long lines for one 5 gallon jug of water per person. Yesterday - I went to three stores to buy food and supplies and stood in line to get in and stood in line to check out for a total of almost 5 hours.
I will try to update you as to the progress of the rebuilding and things in Cozumel.
Thank You
