It's nice out there. Hio! Good choice. They have wild horses that roam free.
I stayed in Avon and year after that went to Corolla.

Went to the Bahamas this year, paid for all inclusive including alcohol. Coors light was considered top shelf liquor and not included, plus they were ignoring anyone with an all inclusive pass to wait on customers that haven't paid yet. Took 40 minutes to get a watered down Bahama mama. So yeah, screw those places, I will keep my money in the states.

The horses don't roam free anymore. They are corralled on 100+ acres. I think they got hit by some cars to cause that.

It's a cool place with a neat history.

You can always head over to the Dominican Republic right now, I heard they treat Americans real good.

Mostly carnival cruises, a few resorts. Pre Trump, they treated us great, post Trump, not so much. I don't even get political, but my Texas accent is unmistakable. I've been down to Honduras and Beliez, those places are downright scary.

My point exactly. Might be shady bar service, might be a tourist serial killer.

From now on, If I go ANYWHERE out of the states, it Canada or Australia.

Sucks. You're missing out. Costa Rica was last year, Iceland this year and the Mediterranean next year.

When it comes to something in my control, I am fearless. When it comes to stuff out of my control, I am paranoid as all hell. I see crime rates and weird laws that can get you locked up, and I stay away. I see some scuba gear or an ATV and I'm the first guy there.

Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. My favorite place on earth.





Maybe a good compromise for you. Vieques, Puerto Rico. Not truly international.





I'm in Kiawah Island, SC this week for work. It's nice enough but I wouldn't spend my money to come back.

Wife got me into travelling...

Have been a few places now, East Caribbean cruise (Grand Cayman, Honduras, Cozumel, etc), Cuba, UK twice, Dublin - Ireland, Playa Del Carman - Mexico, Isla Majures - Mexico (favourite place so far) and heading back to the UK and France in August (can't wait).

Wife's family is on Vancouver Island in Canada, so go to Tofino once a year and visit family around Victoria as well. Probably won't go back to Mexico for awhile - but were always treated well. Just stay off the main tourist trap streets where every shop owner is trying to lure you in with drugs...lol

Isla (Mia Reef is an island off the island of Isla Majures - private beach FTW!):

LOL..That's true. Cuba is off limits to Americans also.

Great being from the US though. Every country in the world hates your guts but at the same time, we can truly say "who the f^c* cares".
