"THANK YOU!!! What fun videos & photos! We had SUCH a great time meeting you, & diving with you & Oscar & Beverly... We ended up staying at Cumbres our entire trip, as we loved it so much! Thank you again for the wonderful recommendation. We will make sure our friends know about M14495 when they travel to Ecuador, and we plan on seeing you again in the near future for more dives. Jon and I are thinking of coming back in July, as we hear there are sailing competitions, as well as whale migrations at that time. I hope you had a
fantastic time ringing in the new year, and that your 2011 brings you much happiness!"
