News stateside is that Mexico holds extreme danger to us and other visitors. Between drug deals and shoot-outs, kidnappings and theft, one ought to hightail it back to the safety of the good old US of A.
Hmmm…
During our last year in Richmond, CA, there were 43+/- drive-by shootings that took place within a few miles of the marina. We know of no anglo who has been murdered here or experienced theft in Mazatlan, and the only items missing in Ensenada were two pairs of shoes Paul had left on Xanadu’s deck. Fine, a dinghy was reported stolen at Bahia Santa Maria, but it was on a long leash and the fishermen there are very poor.
Drug issues exist in many places. But at least here we don’t worry that someone will kill us just because they’re having a bad day.
