1. Don't pick up a "girl" in a bar. Most of them are really really nice looking, however have an extra package down low(I did not learn this from experiance because i was forewarned however someone i know did.)
2. If it is dark outside, try if at all possible to walk toward the middle of the street. I have known a couple of sailors walking to close to the alleyways and they have been grabbed and draged in, only to get their wallet stolen and face smashed in.
It is a wonderfull country just be carefull in the city, the locals know you are a tourist with money.
