    Much different from today, tho I have not been back in years. (Based on news and driver comments..)
    Clean streets and curbs. (Foot toll at L Intl bridge was 2 cents over and 1 cent back.)
    Stocked shops with quality Mex leather goods and reasonable negotiated pricing.
    Boot and saddle makers had a half barrel of sand in front, make an indention
    and he make it to fit your shape.
    Foods were good, Mex native or US like steaks... (Steak in Juarez thick as a roast for $3.50 in 57)
    Good natured haggling over price, an art with them, no pressure..
    And if a pricing discussion became heated, the gendarmes stepped up and had
    a few words with the merchant. (No jerking you in to harangue like some other countries.)
    Tourist was king and treated well, and protected.
    (I would not walk down to "Gildas" in L now with a machine gun in each hand. Paper matchbook labeled "Enjoy it at "Gildas")
    (Or "The Paris de Noche" in J.)
    Then there is the drunken driver buddy falling in S ditch story for another time., and his love proposals.
