Wearing the Kilt in Mexico

[elijah]

Glad the Jean Jacket thing makes sense. Also, after 2 1/2 years, I've gotten to the point where I can (without looking as nervous or conspicuous as in years past).

Did you just tie it around your waist and let it droop down the back? Oh and did you wear speedos under?

I did just tie it around and let it droop down. I generally don't discuss underwear, but no, I didn't wear a speedo. Actually, on my trip to the Mayan ruins, I wore actual shorts under the kilt. In case of severe winds. The ironic thing on that point was that there was really no wind to speak of. Of course, wearing shorts under the kilt left their mark. It chaffed like mad. Never, ever do that if you're a big guy.

However, I can think of some places in Mexico that I wouldn't wear a kilt (Ciudad Mexico, for example). Sounds like a great trip!

Vlad in Mexico City would disagree.

Did you just tie it around your waist and let it droop down the back? Oh and did you wear speedos under? Then they would have really thought you were European. :rolleyes:

Congrats on winning the trip and congrats on wearing the kilt. Fear of the unknown is always the worst and when you confront that fear, no matter the outcome, you have won. Here's to ya
