Every time I mention wanting to be a snowbird in Mexico, I get worried looks from kin, friends and strangers. When you tell them you've never felt unsafe, they roll their eyes and ask about beheadings. Yet every morning's drive-time news always features a shooting, an assault or killing here in wonderfully safe Portland, Oregon. So it gave me great pleasure to read Peter Greenberg's Travel news you can use from America's travel expert write about why he travels to Mexico.


Greenberg writes
"...as a veteran traveler to Mexico who has been going down there since 1973 without a single incident. I am growing tired, and somewhat impatient with expressions of concern or worry — as well intentioned as they may be — about my traveling to Mexico.
Read the article! Greenberg thinks Americans are geographically ignorant, culturally insensitive and fearful. Indeed!
