It's on you

Okay this is just another rant.  In Canada the onus is always on someone else that you are safe at all costs.  No holes in your sidewalk, the snow had better be shovelled, the pavement must be in perfect repair, and I could go on and on.  If you get hurt and for some reason someone else is found to be the blame, they will pay.  Here I notice you better walk with your eyes down.  Especially someone like me who couldn't walk in a straight line if my life depended on it.  There are man hole covers completely off, holes in pavement a small child could fall through and stairs at a moments notice. I've walked and surprise, there is a stair, or a dip or something.  I've noticed so many people walking with bandaged ankles.  It's no wonder.  I am so so careful.

On the other other hand, we are. Dry conscious of those with limited mobility.  Here not, you are on your own.  I noticed today a blind man being led around by his mom.  She was on such high alert, I felt bad for her.

People with mobility problems are put in rooms that they have to walk forever and ever.  Such a shame.  There are much closer rooms.  Our travel agent always looks out for us in that department.  Only this time we had to make a choice, walk farther or have a mildew infested room.  We chose the latter since at other resorts even the close rooms involve A LOT of walking.  Here if you time it right a train will go by.

Enough of the rant.

Below you'll see pictures of what happens when you leave a tip for the maid and when you don't.  Yesterday we just happened to forget.

This is of a man fishing from his inner tube.  His bounty was something to be desired.

Another great day at the beach.
