According to the Mexico Daily News it looks like ixtapa/zihua had a prosperous weekend. It notes there were approx 30,000 tourists with a spin off of $75mil Pesos! Hope everyone got a good share of It!

Unfortunately the "happy numbers" provided by the tourism department have little to do with reality. For starters, to calculate the number of visitors they allegedly count each night a room is occupied at a hotel as a separate visitor. I suspect they use similar fuzzy math to calculate the supposed expenditures. Such "happy numbers" may look good on their reports, but the reality here on the ground is a different matter altogether.
