Before Z Crowds

I've heard that most of the Mexican visitors spend very little on restaurants & taxis -- is that right?

You have heard wrong my friend. All week long there have been lines at every restaurant downtown for breakfast. The beach restaurants are packed late afternoons with everyone eating big platters of fish, and the cenadurias are packed late night.

Last night we asked a friend who sells trinkets along the Paseo del Pescador how business was, and she replied with that gesture of cupping her elbow. We think she misses the cruise ships.
