Why would anyone in his right mind be thinking of vacationing in Mexico?



I was speaking of places other than border towns. I know this would your
idea of a vacation, but most people go to places like Cancun and Mazatlan.


Cancun reminds me of Ft Myers beach but you will see more Mexicans in
Ft Myers Beach. Cozomel is even more so.
All of the bars and hotels out on the Cancun beach are staffed by
American kids it seems.
If you go down into El Centro it is more of a Mexican town but it
really has a border feel to it.
You can get the Mexican experience once you get out of town but you
better have a native guide or be pretty good with your espanol. We
hooked up with a girl from Nevada who lives there now and had a pretty
good time.
All things considered I would rather spend my money here in the good
old USA.

I've not seen any reports of cruising folk having any problems.
