My sentiments exactly, particularly since Mitch chewed up the reef off of
Ambergris Caye, whereas
Keith and Iris did not.

Heck, I was in Coz at the time. The port was closed and no diving took
place for the rest of the week. Tens of thousands of people left the
Yucatan. So I'd say Mitch screwed up those vacations too.
