President Fox started the anti-corruption campaign. Since new president, Felipe Calderón, came into office, we haven't heard as much about that. So, I'm not sure if the number still works. There is no date on that article, so if there is updated info maybe someone will chime in.

Loved the place. The only down side was that we had rented a van and driver for the trip. There were 10 of us in the van and we were stopped by the federal police in front of the prison and told to pay 500 pesos. We are all Canadians that are very upset with this. We have been going to Mexico for 7 years. Always the Yucatan. We found the federals very rude and intimidating. We got their badge numbers and so on but never heard another word from anyone. It seems all locals are afraid of the federal police. I suppose one incident in 7 years is not bad. There was no reason given and our driver had all the proper stuff for travel in the Yucatan. Would love to return to this place but we hesitate due to the problem. No one in the van other than the driver spoke enough spanish to communicate with the police. Is there some one in Vallodolid that we can report this to? Thank You Our visit was fantastic. Loved the place. The only down side was that we had rented a van and driver for the trip.
