To those who went abroad to Mexico.....

What did you pack for your trip?

Was there something you wished you had packed that you didn't?

Anything else you think is important?

Which doctor? Which hospital? Some have many amenities included, some are rather "rustic."

Jane....I took a book on tape which was nice to have. Also, be sure and shave your legs, assuming you do, you may not feel like bending over for awhile. I did not and boy did they get hairy before I felt like bending. Pack light and take lots of small bills for tipping. Those are my words of wisdom.

Good one Theresa!

What about very loose cool clothing and if you fly get a wheel chair at check in to take you to the gate and arrange to have one waiting on the other end when you deplane. That really helped me.
