GOOOOOD morning to all Conch-Lers,
 
After being out of the Net since Thursday due to software problems in out
Lotus Notes, I'm happy to be back to Conch-L. Linda, many thanks for your
kind message.
 
If nothing goes wrong, I'll be landing in Orlando on July 18, to attend COA
Convention, followed by 16 other vacation days. I'll leave Florida on
August 8, back to Brazil, from Miami. We'll be with a rented car for the
whole period, so traveling won't be a problem.
 
I'll spend these days with my wife and since she's not a sheller, our
vacation will be half & half, as always. From "my" 11 days, 5 will be spent
at COA Convention.
 
The question is: if you had 6 days in 16, how would you spend them shelling
(beachcombing, scuba diving and snorkeling) in south Florida (from Orlando
to the Keys). Please, remember that I "only" collect marine gastropods and
that these days do not necessarily need to be spent together and in just
one place. Just one more info: full moon will be on July 23 and new moon on
August 8 (bad luck isn't it).
 
All hints, tips, tricks and avoidable traps are welcome. I'm open to accept
any suggestions and I'd love to receive tons of them.
 
Cheers,
 
Eduardo Moreira
