Windows and Doors

What I find disturbing wherever I go in Antigua or what I have seen in Guatemala City, is that all the windows and doors have metal bars on them.

Basically any opening where there is glass or plastic...something you can get into.....is covered up with metal bars!

They also put broken glass on cement type walls/fences so you can't climb over.

I see it everywhere.

I'm glad we don't have to live this way in our own homes.
