Headed to Palenque? We know a great archeologist there (Alanso Menendez sic) that has a little mayan designed sauna (mescal) and may offer tours of palenque as well. He has a house in that silly little tourist collection of hostels right before the park. ************************ on Wed 17th Mar, 2010 02:43 pm PDT Dave said: I'm slightly confused.. you didn't pay $5 but you did pay $3? ************************ on Wed 17th Mar, 2010 05:57 pm PDT Mom said: Let's not be trying any of that standing up for "principle" stuff crossing into the U.S. from Mexico--especially in Juarez. It appears they don't take kindly to Gringos talking back. ************************ on Wed 17th Mar, 2010 08:31 pm PDT Mom said: Furthermore, I'd rather not see the continuance of this alliterative string such as "Bold Backpacker...Buried Beneath Baja " ************************ on Thu 18th Mar, 2010 04:53 am PDT Horge said: Seems to me like something's up buddy. First bullied in San Antone, and now again in Guatemala. Maybe wearing the same T-shirt on both occasions bearing some awful insult in Spanish? ************************ on Thu 18th Mar, 2010 04:54 am PDT Horge said: Also, you didn't mention where this article was published originally, besides BdW... ************************ on Sat 20th Mar, 2010 11:44 am PDT Wren said: @lebnjay: I was part of a through trip, so no taxi. As for a recap, you'll have to wait until I see you. As for Palenque, if my serious case of las touristas subsides, I plan to head over there tomorrow. @Dave: Correct. $5 > $3, but there is also all that stuff about being prepared, etc. @Mom: no worries. I learned my lesson and now know it is better to avoid border checkpoints completely and will be sneaking across the border back into the US. @George: This article was originally published in the USA Today. Didn't you see it? Oh wait, they probably don't have that over there. ************************ on Sat 20th Mar, 2010 01:56 pm PDT Sean said: I can't wait to read about the bold back packer saving the president from terroristos while simultaneously getting the archeologist chick ************************ on Sat 20th Mar, 2010 03:53 pm PDT Mom said: A case of Las Touristas, eh? I guess this brings up that long unanswered question, "Did the Johns Hopkins experiment in Guatemala (pre-BdW days) give you a placebo or did the experiment fail?" ************************ on Mon 22nd Mar, 2010 04:16 am PDT Horge said: Good question. How did that cup experiment end up? Did it help cure Montezuma's Revenge or something? ************************ |
