And I'm glad that scorpion didn't show up when you were here. In fact, there haven't been any scary things since, but I get your point - don't put up the disclaimer!<br /><br />Troy - I am taking your and Katie's advice, not everyone would understand that I'm writing about the unusual, not the usual - we just don't have scary bugs and critters every day, not even every week.

Bugs, crabs, iguanas, dogs, roosters, and even the honking of horns at 2:am when Mexico wins a soccer game is all part of the experience of being on an island in Mexico...go with the flow and enjoy.

I read up on their reviews and all they talked about was insects and bugs so when I asked if they had their problem taken care of she flipped out and said that since I don't like bugs I shouldn't stay anywhere on the island and she wouldn't let us stay there - LOL my reservation was cancelled even before I made it. =)Moments turning to Memorieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16236496370654831919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9147217458046676151.post-65791668451335685342010-06-03T08:01:55.664-05:002010-06-03T08:01:55.664-05:00Charlotte - Oh, do I dare write about the Aluxes? ...Charlotte - Oh, do I dare write about the Aluxes? I'll surely scare people off for good, lol. And I will never forget that scorpion - came at us like a little bulldozer. A can of paint slammed over it didn't kill it. As a 'newby' to the tropics, I was horrified, you handled it with calm and grace.<br /><br />Doris - thanks! And I know what you mean, there is something about the intent look on a cat's face that makes you realize they are studying something. Usually a gecko or an insect.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18391875870787818644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9147217458046676151.post-87812954829424811872010-06-03T07:43:54.365-05:002010-06-03T07:43:54.365-05:00An excellent piece, Sue.

If nothing else, we are alerted to their presence. Loved the phrase "nature happens".Dorgonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02136138521156887664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9147217458046676151.post-15844410170379358642010-06-03T00:01:07.501-05:002010-06-03T00:01:07.501-05:00Couldn't help but remember the first scorpion ...Couldn't help but remember the first scorpion we saw in your house when it was new -- UGLY! And it was alive....<br />As for the disclaimer -- shouldn't you also mention the Aluxes? All of it makes me wish to be there!Charlottenoreply@blogger.com
