However, on a more alarming note, I found a fascinating article on Mexico City's water; drinking and sewer (aguas negras). I have never been to Mexico City, only Puerta Vallarta, Los Mochis, Escuinapa (where the car had a flat), Tepic, (where I think I had some KFC for lunch) and Tijuana, (but I only got sick when I ate raw oysters in PV). It is sobering to find what can happen if you don't clean up your water:
