Mexico City, swine flu, kidnappings, drug violence

Tempting FateStupid or not, I'm on my way to Mexico City in a week. Flights are cheap; a friend has work for me; it's time to go. I'm also going to do some research for my book in Central America, esp. in Honduras and Guatemala. And hell, when epidemics sweep the world, it's usually the second and third iterations of the virus/bacteria that turns

Flights are cheap; a friend has work for me; it's time to go. I'm also going to do some research for my book in Central America, esp. in Honduras and Guatemala. And hell, when epidemics sweep the world, it's usually the second and third iterations of the virus/bacteria that turns really deadly, so if I get it now, and live, I'll be ok

Sounds like you'd be crazy not to go. Have a great trip, Mr. Swain.

Mexico City rocks. I lived there for three years. I think you would like the area called Condesa if you have time. Also be sure to see the Murals of Diego Rivera in the Dept of Education.

What type of research are you doing in Guatemala?

You'll be fine. Have fun and be safe!
