soooo, swine flu has attacked, and left the poor mexican nation in shambles because fox news (and really all the news outlets) cannot pass 6th grade biology or journalism for that matter. but alas, this is not about fox news. i want to go to mexico, badly. you see, when these things hit, travel prices go down. i went to singapore in 2003 for about 800 dollars total for a week, thats everything tickets and all (remember SARS?). so now that swine flu has confused and scared the fuck out of everyone, i want to go. empty beaches, room upgrades, better service, chilling with the locals who wont be busy. this is a dream time to travel to a mexican beach resort.
so here is my dilemma, im extremely travel savvy and i cant understand why prices arent dirt cheap to get down to mexico. all i want to do is go down for like 5 days, sit on a beach and drink and get tan. maybe splash in the water a little. i check and check and check and somehow it costs the same as flying to singapore in 2003.
so ima keep checking but if someone found me a plane fare for less than 75 dollars (what i was expecting) to cancun i would paypal em 5 bucks. ideally im trying to get down there and stay for a few days and get back up and spend like 300 bucks total.
karma to all for who post and sympathize with either
-me
-the mexican population
-pigs for getting a bad rap
-give me a good idea for my travels
-or hate on the media for being retarded
