    Bit of a latecomer to this thread, but I'd travel as far as Oregon. No further.

    If you think this is bad, read some of the YouTube comments on Carolyn's video demonstrating how the Prius will stop if you floor the accel pedal and brake pedal at the same time. There are some creepy people out there that are way more interested in her bare feet than if the car will stop. :eek:

    No, I kept my thoughts to myself. I thought: "This lady has nice feet, much like my wife's." My wife has great feet.

    I was in Mexico for two weeks. I thought you knew that. Just got home two hours ago. I was at a very upscale spa. I go there mostly for the hiking and the great food, but I also do the yoga and pilates and a few other fitness activities.

    We were told about a spa/resort called Rio Caliente, near Guadalajara - apparently, it's vegetarian, has hot springs (hence the name), and yoga, etc.

    We haven't booked it yet, but it's on my list :thumb:

    I'd happily tag along if you wish

    You know, to help carry the luggage and what not

    There is a discount if you bring a group.

    How about that, the PC chatters group trip to a Mexican spa? :D

    Sounds like a good idea. Jalisco is tierra caliente, so it would be nice in winter. I could see doing that in December or January. I'd probably want to check the climate first.

    (Juan Rulfo, in his famous book, Pedro Paramo, says of the isolated village where the action of the book takes place, that when the locals die and go to hell, they come back for their blankets.)
