I have been in Medellin for 10 days now and will probably be in the area another 10 or 12 days. During that time I cracked a tooth but found a terrific American-trained dentist. He fixed the tooth and another developing problem as well. I was so impressed by his state-of-the-art clinic that I am having some other dental work done.
A few days ago the hard drive on my three month old Macbook Pro blew up. The good news (like the tooth) is that it happened in Medellin, a vibrant modern city throbbing with energy and home to an Apple authorized reseller.

You guys rock!!! It’s people like you that keep me coming back to Apple. Now I can blog again. I plan to make some small upgrades to the site tomorrow and catch y’all up with Cartagena and Medellin.Tweet
You are so lucky to have been in a more modern city when things like that happen. I chipped my tooth while at the airport in Quito en route to Mexico. It doesn’t hurt, so I still haven’t gone to a dentist. Since I’m in Buenos Aires now, I probably should get over my fear and get it looked at.

Yes, if it had happened in Ecuador or Peru next few weeks I would have been SOL. Good look with yours. I am sure you will find a good dentist in Buenos Aires.
