IT'S A JUNGLE OUT THERE

Aw…
Didn’t mean to frighten anyone about Mexico…
Because the truth is…
Police here are considered ‘preventive’ law enforcement...
Unlike cops in the States...
Who show up after an incident or crime.
With tourism here on the Rivera Maya…
Being the only industry…
The Mexican government...
Wants to deter crime and not scare the tourists...
Because that would mean the locals wouldn’t have work.
And actually?…
When people ask me if I’m afraid to travel…
I say, “Oh yeah! You betcha!
When I travel to the States that is...
Like, Detroit, Chicago, Philly..
And yup…
Even some parts of my beloved New York City.”
And just like NYC’s finest…
Who are on almost every corner…
The policia here in Mexico…
Are ever vigilant too.
There, there…
Feel better now?
Please don’t be afraid to visit me…
When my retreat is up and running…
The only thing that you might encounter…
Are the chongos (monkeys) in the jungle.

Always, Em-Musing
