I have been traveling quite a bit and many times people asked me,
why do you always go to these dangerous countries where it is difficult to
travel. Why don’t you go to the US, rent a car, enjoy easy traveling and do
some shopping?
Brief background - on all my trips to the “dangerous countries”, I have never been attacked and nothing was ever stolen from me (touch wood this won't change).
On this trip we built in some days in Florida, following the often recommended travel pattern with US, rental car, shopping etc.
So here we are the first night in Fort Lauderdale in a nice hotel. About 3am we both wake up as there is noise outside our door and a flash light all over our window. Upon opening the blinds to check what’s going on, a police men does a big jump away from the window. Once both the police men and we recovered from the shock, we open the door and talk to him. He explains that there was a break in attempt to our room and security called the police. This is why he was taking finger prints on our door. After our talk he left, leaving the black powder and the tapes he put on our door in place. That much about dangerous and safe places…
