60' is cake (well, not 'cake', but certainly nothing I'd sweat taking a non-certified friend down to if it was clear and calm and they weren't an idiot)...it's at 120' when you start feeling woozy that things get interesting.

My girlfriend has a floor of 80'...below that and she starts freaking out just because she knows she's deeper than 80' (arbitrary I know...but what can I say, I'm not in her head). I've been thinking it'd be great to get a depth gauge that just snags at 80' she'd be good for anything.

All I know is that scuba is one of the most amazing experiences one can have in the outdoors!!! when your down deep and look up and around...it makes you realize how miniscule you are...I'm gonna be outta touch for one week if they don't have Wi-Fi down there and we are leaving in 2 hours to head down there...I'll let ya know

Have a good time...get a disposable underwater camera and take some pictures...(assuming you read this before you get back).
