[quote=APAULT,243791]Bienaqui, I can assure you that you will ALL be looked at.  Maybe you will get a little more attention than the whites but in my experience (as an observer) you should not have any problems.  I accept that blacks might have troubl;e with taxis and getting their own accommodation, for the reasons people have said above, but that shouldn't be a problem in a tour group.  
I have noticed that all people who are foreign and different are stared at a bit more... for example a large busted (white, in this case) US teacher caused a gasp when she was introduced to students.  there are not as many 'fat' (sorry I don't mean to offend anyone) peopel here... so the larger bodied person is unusal and looked at.  I have very blond hair and kids look...and I like the young ladies looking...very flattering.

In matters of dress.. we had a very long discussion in here one time... You will get looked at if you show more than kust a little cleavage...showing large areas of breast..as is common in Australia (and presumably elsewhere) has not become fashionable here so you will be looked at, but I doubt you'll get any actual complaint.

Enjoy yrself :)[/quote]
