Before leaving the Ship, a crew member handed me a fly-leaf advising the taxi fare from the pier to downtown was US$5.00/person. Good information. When we actually got on shore, we saw a sign that the taxi fare for downtown was US$3.00/person. You can guess, how much we paid for our taxi, 4 person in one taxi ...
I was interesting in a pair of slipper, was told it would cost me US$80.00. There's no way I could even perform my bargaining skills.
We went to a Currency Exchange for Mexican money (local banks won't do it). The post showed US$1.00=P$12.80. The actual rate she would give us was only US$1=P$12.00. I pointed to her the post. She simply replied, "I haven't had a chance to change it."
The Board Walk was very clean, the scenery was beautiful until two old women came to be in front of my wife showing me an album of naked girls that ruined the clean Walk and the beautiful scenery.
