Everyone tells tales of the bad stuff and none of all the good! We're off in October to see friends in Todos Santos and hope to go back to Oaxaca, one of our favorite places in Mexico. I want to share with you something that happened to us in Guatemala if I may. We where walking down a back street when a young man came up to us. At first I thought he was coming to us to ask if we wanted to buy drugs. Being that we're in our middle fifties, he asked if we wanted to buy Viagra. We couldn't stop laughing. Thanks again for all your wonderful help. Warmest regards! Kathy Hello Carl and Lorena
