Before you rush out to shop and loose all your travel checks, shed a little tear for Britney Spears, who we all kind of knew was headed in this direction.
As you are riding the bus that's going 150 miles an hour downhill, think about who will welcome you back home on the tubes when you finish your vacation and head back to the states.
As you get pickpocketed by a ragtag group of beach urchins, think about the fact that, although at times unsafe, this country you're visiting is free of a certain, shall we say, element.
As you realize you left one of your luggage bags back at the airport, and the airport is two hours away, remember that you face a much worse injustice during this trip: having to miss Gossip Girl. Unacceptable!
