Just back from a Caribbean cruise, where we made port of call in sunny
Hidalgo. Colorful natives hawking their wares ("Product of China")
and an exotic local beverage ("tah-key-lah" as need as I could make
out).

Reloaded on coffee cups and t-shirts decorated with pyramids and Mayan
'glyphs. Also bought a model kit to built my own pyramid.

My one disappointment -- no local neckties. I know it's an infomral
culture, but still, when you see what these people can do to decorate
a soccer jersey or a VW Beetle, you know they could come up with some
really wild neckties.

Hey, that's what we THOUGHT the words were,
first time we saw the movie in the theater . . .

Wish Dent had done a "Princess Monja goes to New York" story -- that would
have been fun!
