Mexico Tourism Board Launches New Campaign

Mexico's Tourism Board is launching a new campaign to attract American tourists to their country. There has been a dramatic dropoff in Americans traveling to Mexico since drug-related violence gripped the country in recent months. The new campaign is entitled "Come To Mexico, We Dare You!"

Manuel Luis Espinoza, head of Mexico's Tourism Board, says "There has never been a better time to travel to Mexico. In some locations you can almost have the entire hotel to yourself. Couples are finding that some real-life danger is all they need to add that little extra spark to their love life. It is important to remember that everyone arriving at the airport in Mexico will be offered a bulletproof vest which should quell any fear of being hit by a stray bullet during a drug-related gun battle near your location. The vests also make great souvenirs."

When asked if there were any other benefits to traveling to Mexico at this time Mr Espinoza said, "Needless to see there is currently an ample supply of cheap recreational drugs. I would say we have the world's finest selection at this time. Also, you have never been to a party until you've been to a cartel party! So, as you can see, this is a great time to head south of the border and enjoy Mexico. Just keep your eyes open and your head down and you should be fine."

"It kind of gives the term Survival Spanish a whole new meaning," Mr Espinoza said with a smile.
