Instead of an orange traffic cone for road work, a cinder block or large log will work just fine, just watch out at night!

Honk your horn if you are turning, not turning, slowing down or speeding up or just honk anyway.

Bring toilet paper with you. Always.

There is never enough bug spray.

You will hear the question “Taxi?” 457 times a day.

Let the man in the produce aisle weigh your produce BEFORE you go up front to pay.

Taxi cabs will speed around you, preferably on blind curves.

If you can go around something in your car, do it. It does not matter if that puts you in a ditch, in front of other traffic or on a sidewalk. Do it or endure lots and lots of honking.

Do not bother putting on makeup. It will sweat down to your knees in 15 minutes anyway.

Careful where you step at night. You are very likely to step on a crab.

Those little happy chirps in the morning are not the birds. It is the geckos who have feasted on ants and whatever else was in your room all night.

Nobody is in a hurry, so don’t bother being in one yourself ; )
