Any recent PV travelers

I would like to hear from some regular travelers to PV. Last year the exchange rate was around 15 pesos to the US $$ - fantastic rate. In the past it was more like 11 to 1. Now I see it is around 13 to 1; still not a bad conversion rate but I am curious to know if restaurants and stores have adjusted their prices to reflect last years rate. If so, most things will cost about 10-15% more.

Our son is leaving this Saturday and we are going in January. Have any regulars been recently?

Nope, I am not a regular but was there last January - just posting to wish you a nice trip as well as your son

Not an every year person to there but we were there in early November.
The exchange rate was between 12-13 depending on where you went.
This was only our 3rd trip to Mexico and our first to PV but in general we found PV to be more reasonable that either Cancun area or Mazatlan.
Don't know for sure but from what I read before we went, I don't think that the prices were adjusted that much, in fact, everyone was telling us that visitors were way down and it seemed that most places were competing for your dollar so some very good deals were there to be had.
There were people there but not the numbers that we had seen in Mexico other years.
