Agree.
And I use to go down there (to Acapulco) as many as ten times a year. This is because a buddy had a beautiful home with a pool over looking Acapulco.
It was fantastic in those days (early eighties)! Absolutely fantastic!
I haven’t been there in 10 years now.
There are many things I’d like to see in Mexico, mostly the ancient sites, but not enough to travel through El-Anbar Province.
