Esto es demasiado

When I give presentations to the public in Maine, almost all people know where or what Cancun is. And most people have heard or know where the Yucatan is. But hardly no one has heard of Quintana Roo. Quintana Roo is one of the 31 states that is comprised of Mexico, where Cancun, the popular vacation tourist spot is.
I have visited Cancun twice; once overnight, when my father felt better after being sick on one of our hikes. He wanted civilization and a cheeseburger desperately!

I know what the real Mexico is like, and it is not Cancun. If you are looking for a place to party with groups of people in a noisy bar or disco, drink alcohol all day long while sitting in a pool side chair, attend organized group tours on a tourist bus, stay at a fancy hotel probably owned by international CEOs, or eat at expensive restaurants that serve Americanized food--then Cancun is the place for you. My sentiments are exactly what this sign says in Spanish: THIS IS TOO MUCH. This neon sign is posted on the street of the Hotel Zone when you walk into Cancun. I have experienced Cancun on a short visit and at the Iberostar resorts, and I will never look back. I much prefer the Mexican pueblos that are rich in culture.
