Additionally, be aware that public consumption of alcohol is prohibited in some public areas and should be avoided.

"I am sure I did. Most often they were probably related to language and misunderstanding. There are lots of little things like trying to have a party for adults and offending a family because we did not want them to bring their children. And of course we have shown up for a party on time - never again. I attended the parents breakfast at school, which was really a breakfast for a few hundred moms - and me! I have learned to always say you need something earlier than you do. It is expected," said another expat in Mazatlan, Mexico.
