Why travel to Mexico?
The U.S.A. is full of beautiful, fun, marvelous things to see and do.

Ding! Ding! Ding! Folks, we have a winner!

Full disclosure: my wife and I remembered Acapulco and Cancun when they were cheap, fun, and safe.

BTW, anyone recall the “See America First” campaign?

You’re right. There are a lot of places in the U.S. I haven’t been and hope to get there before I depart this earth.

And I don’t mind traveling through Europe and other countries. I wouldn’t want to live in any of them, but for a visit, many are fine.

True story: Before reserving that Mediterranean cruise, I hesitated because I had the impression that Spain would be something like Mexico. Back then, Mexico already had the reputation for being a hellhole, and I thought if Spain was anything like Mexico, I wasn’t sure I would like Barcelona. A good friend of mine who had been stationed in Germany with the Army many years ago set me straight. He had the opportunity while serving over there to spend some leaves in different European countries, including much of Spain. He said I would love Spain, that there is a big difference between Spain and Mexico. He was right.

Some people travel for a change of scene. We love spending time in Mexico, including weeks earlier this year in a private home in a real neighborhood one of the cities that cruise ships frequent.
