tourism down tis winter

yep, as if you need to know this, everyone is talking about the economy. And Tourism is down.

Just returned from Montego Bay and the folks there are saying the x-mas holiday is down to 30 % of the usual high season. Hotels are struggling to keep employees on. Just like the US, hotels are contracting employees so they don't have to pay the same benefits. Remember this and try to tip to the best of your ability.
