I even argued with my dad about changing our money in to pesos rather than just paying with dollars like all the other American tourists who visit the island or dock for a day as part of Caribbean tours. The good thing about Cozumel was that it's pretty small, so you don't have the crazy in your face spring breaky tourist stuff you'd find in Cancún. As to how people there feel about it, I'm not sure they mind. They're making money and as soon as they go away from the Zona Hotelera there a lot less tourists. I'm going to ask my cousin's wife about this. She's from Mazatlán and used to work at Señor Frogs. I felt like this a bit in Cozumel in June.
