Each and every night, we receive our Princess Patter, and it informs us of things to do and see in each port. So according to PP there was not much to do and see here and the words were, The town itself may not inspire". Well whoever wrote that must have rocks in their head!! We walked off the ship with music blaring from loudspeakers in the middle of the town. This certainly made an instant impression and created a lively atmosphere. As I had had one too many cocktails in Acapulco, we only intended to stay out for an hour or so! This did not happen once we found all the colourful, busy and inexpensive little shops. It was bustling with families as it was a Sunday, people smiled all day long and said hello. We loved it here. The coronas were available in all the bars but we could not find any to buy to bring back on the ship. One interesting thing is the pharmacy's are just open front shops and anyone can buy anything, without a prescription! We saw many passengers stocking up on antibiotics, pills etc. Cheap too, I think I heard $3 for penicillin, 24 tablets. It was very hot and we lasted over 4 hours so did well. A beautiful port and we would love to come back here. Many people did tours, (there was only about 4 offered) and everyone loved what they did.
