My flight arrives SJU 9;30 PM FEB 13. I was either gonna stay a nite near the airport, rent a car in the am, and drive out, 'or get a car that nite and drive out. Are there any accomodations less than $100 a nite near the boogie? If anyone needs a ride let me know.

One hotel in Arecibo (DZ) is http://www.elbuencafe.com or Hotel Villa Real 787.881.6676 special rate under the name Puerto Rico Xtreme Divers
see link below: Coral By the Sea Hotel in Isla Verde, next to the San Juan International Airport. Here, you are staying next to other restaurants, sports bars, all mayor hotels, and near the beach. If you drive at night you will have no traffic, about a 45 minute drive to the dz area. Traffic in the morning from this location (hotel in SJ) is kind of heavy in the morning hours, I would recommend to leave your hotel after 9:00 am or before 7:00am...

Viviana tells me that most of the folks on this list have not yet registered. If you haven't, please register as soon as possible! http://www.xtremedivers.com/boogie.shtml
If you are going to put me on the list, you must put me on the proper "team"....
Since when did I join "Team Meatball?"
As far as I know, I still am loyal to the first Colorado Team: "Avian Flew" (members JumpNaked69 and RJMoney)
And... What is "Team Meatball?" In Eloy for X-mas, Emily named us "Sexual Chocolate Colorado", which was very difficult for manifest to say without laughing on the 15 minute call.... I am confused why I keep being adopted into teams named after foods????

How many people do you have registered so far? How many are you expecting? What is the situation with paid packers....are you going to have enough to support all the lazy people who don't want to pack?

As Steve knows, I'm definitely to be counted amongst the lazy people who don't want to pack. (210 square feet of slippery new ZP is not my idea of a fun vacation).
/Of course I know how to pack. I walk over to the fellow who is doing the packing, hand him or her money, and say, "Could you please pack this? I need to get on the next load." And then magically, it gets packed.
// Sooner or later.

ALSO, some of you may have noticed that the registration site is not secure, and will transmit your credit card information over the Internet in the clear. If you like you can call Viv or Jason with your card number (of course, don't use a mobile phone) ... (787) 852-5757

I'll be showing up on the 10th, if anyone needs a pick up ride from the airport shoot me an e-mail and we can work it out like in prison.
For those who want to participate in the invitational Wingsuit event in Eloy , just let me know and we can knock out some flights. As usual, I'll be bringing SWAG to give away from PD, Alti-2, Liquid Eyewear, Bonehead, Birdman, Jump Shack, VASST and Vigil. See ya there.
