    I'm here now and the wifi is not the best kinda works when it wants to but it does work and yes the plugs are US standards.
    We can do this one pound at a time

    Life is not always wrapped in a bow
    But it's still a gift enjoy it ! !

    Different times of the day seemed to work better than others. it was hit or miss, but it worked good enough for us to surf the net and post several times. Plugs were standard.

    I don't expect to get great internet but it would be nice to be able to browse the web and mess around on facebook. I figured it would be asking a lot to stream netflix or something LOL. I'm bringing my Cell and some Bluetooth headphones and plan on having lots of podcasts to listen to while I'm recovering.

    Take an extension cord (or buy one at the local store). I also loaded up my iPad with a bunch of SOA episodes and hooked up my iPad to the TV to watch them.

    I am a whole season behind. I need to download season 6, maybe that's what I will do.

    Char, does that mean what I think it means?? Are you still going to Mexico and not going through insurance? Have you talked to your husband already?

    Both the hospital and hotel will give you codes for wifi .... or ask if they don't give it to you . Remember to eat the broth !! They give you little slips for free broth extension cord is really a plus ...
