first time there (3rd time to Mexico)

It feels like the Vegas strip with so many giant resorts/hotels.


Not sure if it was the town, or just our resort, but I couldn't go 10ft without running into at least 3 hot girls wearing tiny bikinis or thongs...


My buddy who booked the place said our hotel was known as a 'Party Hotel' and I can believe it...everyone was mainly 18-30 year olds. Lots of South American countries represented at the resort, Argentina population was the biggest of the South American countries, but by and far it was mainly Canadians there. So many hot hot French girls...oh my.


And then I get back and my family was calling me to make sure I was OK because there was another report of a Canadian tourist being beaten near to death in Mexico (girl in Mazatlan as it happens).

Big debate right now about how safe it is for people to travel to Mexico...


*shrug*

I'd go back to Cancun...maybe not Mexico City or Tijuana though...

But my delight, yes, always mine,
Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

TV wouldn't lie!


We went down as a group (6 of us) and for the most part there was always at least 2 people doing stuff like going out to clubs and what not...so I don't know, I felt really safe...but I'm also not a girl. Walking around half naked just about anywhere in the world as a girl...I would be a LITTLE sketched out of getting jumped.

And we made sure the girls always had someone to walk back to their room with them, or go into town with them.

It's not in the best interests of the cartels to start messing up tourists. They know that. Not saying some stuff hasn't or won't happen to foreigners, but they tend to police themselves in that regard.

As a tourist and American citizen, I appreciate everything the drug cartels do for me and I'm sure they're aware of our appreciation. Americans love drugs

I've been to the Grand Oasis to have breakfast. Rode up and down the glass elevator admiring all those hanging gardens inside.


My impression of Cancun was that it was almost literally a US city situated in the Yucatan.

Cool, glad you're alright.


Typically just stay the EFF away from the border. To visit Tiajuana and the like, you just have to want to die. But going to places like Cancun, Playa Del Carmen, Cozumel... you should be fine.

Just use some common sense. More than ever, do not venture out alone, do not go exploring, and don't do anything shady or off the beaten path (giggidy). Don't kid yourself, those cartels are more terrifying than what our military is fighting overseas.

Its sensationalism hyper Zionist Canadian corrupted Parliament thugs that spew lies about other countries that makes people hate a growing economic powerhouse like Mexico.
