If you're going to Yap or Palau via Orlando, you've got much bigger
things to worry about than where to sit on the tram.

That's a mighty broad query. Maybe you could narrow it down some if you
have specific concerns. Here's a few:

Suggestions: Do a liveaboard in Palau to maximize dive time.

Warnings: The ancient stone paths around/between villages in Yap can get
mighty slippery.

We are just beginning the search.

We will probablly go for 2-3 weeks. Seems like a liveaboard is the ticket
for Palau. We may do land in Yap, and maybe on tover to Truk/Chukk, if we
have time.

Thanks for the info on Orlando, however, hopefully we won't have to go that
direction, we are leaving from Phoenix. I am guessing to LA, maybe Hawaii,
Guam to Palau

Darn, and I really wanted some BIG money. Those photos are pretty kool. I
think I would have to put them on a barge to get them back to states. It
probably would be easier to make my own here
