grrrrr.......... after 6 months of travel in latin america have experienced my first outburst of incredibly infantile macho behavior....

was walking down the street in granada.... dude starts cycling by me... talking to me in English... doing the "hablas expanol?" thing... so i ignore it and he goes away...

am walking towards the lake in a more quiet part of town 5 minutes later... noticing that the ambient is getting a bit more "unsafe"? so i am holding close to my bag....

and then out of nowhere... the same guy from before comes cycling behind me... grabs the top of my head (hat and HAIR)... yanks away at my hair and steals my $1 Army and Navy hat....

and speeds off on his bike

cowardly...

sad...

have relocated my hair elastic... will look for a new hat in a couple of days

sorry to hear about that. it was very cowardly. well perhaps, the good thing is he just took your hat and didn't do any other harm.

Yeah, things like that are so irritating, but definitely a bright side to that story - U didn't get hurt or have anything of value stolen.

How on earth did u bruise a rib?
