Piedras negras isnt bad but seemed to have way too many beggars.

The secret to getting rid of the kids begging for change in the market places etc when in mexico is to carry a pocket full of change and when they start gathering around you reach deep down in the pocket and then raise your hand up high to tease them and get them jumping around and excited then toss the entire hadful as far as you can in the opposite direction than the one you wish to go in.

works EVERY time.

i think the cops outlawed the children beggers in progresso for the most part. they sure arent noticable the way they were several years ago

sometimes the adults wanting you to visit their booth at the market are worse. I usually slip them a 5 and thank them for their time but we just want to leisurely look around.


Those of you that know me KNOW that it usually isnt that polite of a conversation but I do try.

not fair to list a city you've never been to as one of your favorites. Cozumel and Playa del Carmen are two I've been to.

Edinburgh has to be one of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen.

Rome would be great to visit because of the culture and history plus it would be great to visit the Vatigan.

Paris would be great too mainly because of the Eifle Tower and the statue of Joan of Arc.

Berlin would be great because of the history.

London would be awesome indeed.

Mexico City because of the history and culture.
