Never been to Devil's Cove in Lake Travis/Austin, TX. But I will say...Party Cove in Lake Lewisville (north of Dallas/Ft. Worth) is quite the place to be.

How old is this picture? That VHS repair sign screams '80s. Not that I think that Guayaquil has drastically improved since then.

I don't know, but regardless it's a shit hole. I saw multiple places even in Medellin that had VHS repairs, two months ago.

This looks like Vegas. When it comes to Vegas, I think I'd rather live in the burbs than in a lot of spots in the city. A lot of the inner city in Vegas is grimey. I lived in a place that looked a lot like this in Vegas.

Huh, interesting. That temple in the left center looks pretty fucking awesome. I want to check out Barcelona.

Are those housing projects outside the center or Barcelona? It's massive.

I almost went to law school in Camden. I'm kind of glad I didn't. There is actually what I consider to be a great restaurant either within the Camden city limits or right outside of the city limits.

Of course not, it's just a regular neighborhood in Barcelona around the Sagrada Familia. http://goo.gl/maps/cVa74

I've been around there, I have no idea why he put that on this "places not to be" list. Barcelona is a great place to be.

Back to the topic, here's one place to avoid, Papas and Beer in Ensenada, Mexico. Made that mistake in my early 20s.

I think you win. Why would anybody go to that place? Looks like a gay bar.
