So, Don, did you hear today about the mass grave that has just been discovered outside of Acapulco?..... Well, it seems that they have "unearthed" your missing bus load of tourists! :shocked2:
I was, however, partially wrong concerning some of the violence in Cancun that I referenced...
In late August there was an incident in which a bar/club in Cancun was fire bombed killing eight (8) people. Early on I was of the impression that it involved tourists. But, on futher investigation today, I find that it was outside of the "usual tourist areas", and those killed were locals.
But, I still stick by my feeling that with all of the greatly escalating violence that is occurring in Mexico that I would be VERY reluctant to consider a vacation on the mainland at this time!
Even if tourists are not being deliberately targeted, isn't there a highly increased risk that you may accidently get caught up in a battle between cartels or a cartel and the law?
And look at what happened to the jet skier on Falcon Reservoir!...And, yes, I know it is a border lake , and no where on the border is it safe now! But,,,,,,
No, mainland Mexico is just not safe enough for me to feel comfortable these days!
