I think that you're going to have a pretty tough time finding any place that's "hot, hot, hot" in April with the exception of maybe near the equator. And you ain't gonna get there for $850...especially Canadian. I'd suggest Baja, California...near the tip at either Cabo San Lucas or a little further north, the name of the town eludes me at present. The average temperature at that time of the year is around 85 (daytime) and in the low 70's at night. I've been to Baja many times, although I admit not that far down, and have yet to have a bad experience. And if you want room to breathe and a rustic atmosphere, Baja is the place for you. Plenty of water activities (actually, that's about all there is) and fairly cheap. If you can get to San Diego from Ontario as cheaply as possible, you can fly to Cabo San Lucas for under $200 round trip which includes a hotel room for up to sikx nights. Of course, that means flying from Tijuana, not San Diego, and on one of the Mexican airlines (names also elude me at this moment). Good luck! Tom Moore Bell Labs ihnp4!ihuxi!moore1
