    Yes, the 2nd day I was there I actually got the want-ads out and started looking for a job, haha. I talked to a few people while I was there as they moved there for work and they said about the first year, year and a half, everything was awesome, but once you see and do all there is to do, it's like every other place and the downside was to take a vacation you can't of course just hop a bus or jump into your car, you have to fly somewhere.

      I had the same reaction when I visited what stopped me was the extra cost of everything from having to import. I just vowed to visit again which will happen eventually.

        Yeh when I was there I didn't get all crazy doing every Tourist thing there was to do, so when I go back one day there will still be things I can do there. Yes you don't realize that everything has to be brought in, I think a gallon of milk was like $7-$9 when I was there, somewhere around that amount. Course I wasn't drinking milk, haha!

            @DrunkOldMan -

            That sounds great. It is also the reason to stay at the embassy suites if you can as they usually have a managers reception with limited or unlimited free drinks depending on the hotel.
