Go to your local Catholic book store or some place similar and get some stickers of the Virgin. Put them on anything you want to protect from theft, even your camera if you can find a sticker small enough to not interfere with the camera functions. It is amazing how much protection that will give. The criminals there will murder kidnap, deal drugs, etc. but they are afraid to harm anything religious. And of course try to stay in the relatively safe areas. Really sad, the country has lots of friendly, hard-working people and beautiful landscapes, but the crime and government corruption keep them down. Wife and I spent some time there as missionaries for our church and saw all that.
