Alarm at 3am! Yikes! Limo pick-up at 4 for a 6:15am Continental flight. We met Matt, Marc, Pete, Kevin, Tim, Jeremy and Eric at the airport. In Houston we met Fred, Pat and Chris. Hopped on our second flight down to Georgetown on Grand Cayman. The flight attendant served lots of wine. In Cayman we were met by Dave from the Aggressor. Chris' bag had been "mis-placed", so it took a little bit of extra time, but they promised to bring the bag to us on the boat the next day.  Took two taxis to the boat, boarded and set up gear. Had a briefing from the captain, met the other divers: Ainhoa, a Spanish woman living in Germany and Kathy and Greg, co-workers from Kentucky. Then we started a bit of a first night celebration. Stayed up until about 11, then down to bed.
