No, it is a veritable ghost town. Was there earlier this week and stunned by how empty the city was. I was surprised by how clean the city streets were but realized that it took people to make a mess.
Wow...we were in first place for the past few years and now we've slipped to tenth place.
Kind of like Notre Dame football.

A) The "Pharmacerias" will sell you bunk pharmacueticals. Don't trust them.
B) There's lots of one-legged people. I was told later it is due to their medical poliy of cutting off the offending limb if said limb belongs to a poor person. Got a fracture? Sorry, that leg's gotta come off.
C) When you see a street food vendor, and you notice he has some kind of pastry with raisins in it, please note that those are not raisins.
D) The Mexican Gov't bills you 25 cents to enter their country, and another 25 cents to leave. If they were smart it would be free to enter, and 25 DOLLARS to get out of that oozing pus-hole. I would have gladly paid it.
E) I was quickly made aware that every Mexican male was transfixed by my wife's bosum. It was a mix of surprise and anger when I saw them stop what they were doing, sometimes even in the middle of the street, frozen, staring open-mouthed at her chest. Young boys and old men, both one and two-legged, it did not matter: They all fell into the thrall of my then-fiance's less-than-ample B-cups. "Must be a cultural thing", I assured myself, as I hustled my pale liability back over the border to civilization.
