I think Rob said he would update and this looks like it's higher than last year when we were there.

Speaking of taxis, could anyone tell me what the new (non air conditioned ) price is from La Madera to the airport.

Gracious, Mork

I just took a cab 6 blocks and he quoted the new price-I said no and he say shut up and listen to me. I listen and then told him to shut up and listen to me--That the fare was not yet in effect and I handed him my money and got out and slammed the door.
I went in the house and waited for the police to ring my door bell but so far they have not. I would have told them to take me to jail and I would have called my lawyer. It is not about the money it is about them ripping off people who live here and spend there money in Zihua. We will give to anyone who is in need but do not rip me off.
