Just a note after re-reading this thread.....if you visit Mexico don't assume that because you speak Spanish to the "natives" that you won't get taken advantage of. I know it sounds harsh, but they can tell who is a tourist and who isn't, especially if you aren't of Mexican descent.

I learned this when I was traveling in Mexico a few years ago. I was in a sort of touristy city in southern Mexico and was looking for gifts and I was just talking to the people who worked at the shops about tourists and such. Its amazing what they were telling me, like the price differences for people who they think are non-Mexican tourists vs. Mexican tourists.
