mjm you scared me im off to mexico and vegas next 3 weeks and everyone says bottled water now im afraid not of the kidnap but of the bathrooms ...omg :woohoo: this is worse than the providence game
I'm pretty careful about everything I do when traveling now since I've gotten food poisoning twice overseas ( Argentina-eating goat and in Israel-bad shredded meat on top of hummus ) but I totally forgot about the ice cubes because it was so freaking hot here in Cartagena yesterday especially coming from ny.
I never drink tap water in south america and brush my teeth using bottled water and won't even eat salad because they wash the lettuce in water.
But the damn ice cubes. I completely forgot
On the bright side everything is in walking distance to the B&B we are staying at and the bathrooms everywhere are clean.
Much better than turkey a few months ago where probably 50% of the public bathrooms didn't have toilet bowls. You had to squat over a hole in the ground
That was horrendous
Have fun in Mexico. I actually was trying to buy kidnapping insurance for colombia but the places I was calling only sold it to companies.
So I said screw it and I'm wearing my SJU gear all over colombia figuring after the way our season went potential kidnappers would feel bad for me
