Honestly, if you are going to a high end resort in Cabo, you have little or nothing to worry about. Just enjoy yourself.
hey dont ride in here on your horse and promote fun vacations! we wont have it
Yer call, but anywhere I go completely unarmed, one of these goes with me:I could probably purchase a cane down there.
you can walk into almost any shop in mexico and buy a switch blade , thats usually what I do as soon as I get there , just toss it before you come back ...
Don't go! My parents went last year and had several close call even in the resort area. I'm not even talking about the food and wate issues they both had.
Cleveland is safer!
but not nearly as scenic...
What close calls did your parents have?
My wife and I are going to Mexico for a vacation in several weeks. I've already checked travel warnings, and a few travel websites. The area we are going, Cabo san Lucas, isn't experiencing the high level of violence that the border areas are. We're also staying at an exclusive resort. Still going to be careful where we go.
BTW my wife's company is paying for the trip, there's NO WAY IN HELL I'd have picked Mexico as a vacation spot.
So, my thinking is to take some of my preps, spread through the bags we are checking in and carrying on. Mostly thinking food (MRE's and power bars,) water filtration, multi-tool, dust masks, and first aid. The list is obviously limited, based on what we can put in a checked in bag.
We'll have my pepper spray in the checked-in bag. I'll be carrying that everywhere once we get down there. I'll be carrying a nice metal pen on the plane, not a tactical pen though, a fisher space pen.
I've got a travel book of the area on order. I'll be sure to write down important numbers/locations, like the embassy, and E5RANGER (in case someone's got to come rescue us )
Sound like a good plan? Any suggestions on what else I could bring.
