I found that if you walk around as if you are driving a car, you'll manage to avoid collisions. Good Luck - Enjoy yourselves.

chick you will have a blast! we want to hear about it when you get home. lol

Yea have a great time,KD.

You and hubby are posted on the May Whos In Town page.


Have a great trip.

Enjoy

Have a good time and enjoy yourself! Remember to keep a log and take some pics for the guys on the forum!

wicked hope you have a great time looking forward to reading how it went going to check Travelogues after this post.

you mentioned tips, if you do read this I'd advise not going out with loads of money esp if going for a stoned late night stroll outside of the district and coffee shops clusters (which i find are safer) and don't chain your bicycle up outside overnight cause it will get nicked.

ahh one last thing if you buy a small blue glass bong maybe try not to sit there and watch it slip out of your hand and smash on the floor - best to put it on the table/chair after a huge hit
