Okay, truly, this is AWFUL. And I'm genuinely sorry that this happened to you both. But it's worth noting that thuggish street crime (or, uh, beach crime) can happen ANYWHERE on the planet. And does. A few years back, one of my friends was mugged on the front steps of his apartment building here in Seattle. In a "safe" neighborhood. Thugs aren't limited to the beaches of Zanzibar.

No, I know. That's why I said it's worth a visit. Just want people to go in eyes-open, is all. Maybe by seeing what happened to us, they can avoid the same mistakes we made.
