Security System

Mexico is crazy right now. A vicious wild west filled with lawlessness. All the time we hear about robbings, kidnappings, and killings. Recent activity with the drug cartel in Mexico has made this one of the most dangerous times in Mexico history. Some have advised us not to go at all, some have advised us to bring guns, we are going a different route.
So we are trying to take precautions. We installed locks on all the doors and painted over the old school bus words with yellow paint, and we now have our new security system. Meet "Tank" or "Muerte" (which means death in Spanish).

We got this huge Rottweiler off craigslist a few days ago and he has already become one of the crew. We have spent many hours at the beach trying to get him used to swimming in the surf and he loves the sand.
Truth be told he is actually a extremely gentle, loving, and smart dog. But the good thing is he does 'look' gentle.
Most of the dogs in Central America are smaller mutts. Having this massive dog will certainly help with our intimidation factor and will hopefully make people think twice about breaking into the bus.
