Kalle, Interesting to see that Playa del Carmen's that close to Xcaret; we went there one day on our trip. :-) I have no direct link, but I remember reading in Swedish morning paper Svenska Dagbladet that some Mexican official stated that Playa del Carmen was totally demolished. I don't know for sure, though... Faruk, Kalle,

Thanks for sharing!

Kalle,

Interesting to see that Playa del Carmen’s that close to Xcaret; we went there one day on our trip. :-)

Me and my wife spent our honey moon (August, 2K) in <a href="http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?formtype=address&searchtype=address&country=MX&addtohistory=&city=playa+del+carmen" title="View location in map" rel="nofollow">Playa del Carmen</a> south of Cancún. Several times the last days I have wondered if that area where affected by the flood as well...

I've been to NYC several times and it was always kind of my "anchor" to the city to see the Towers there. When they fell, a part of my life's history became obscure. Intangible, in a way. That's how I could relate to that one much better than to the hurricanes, for instance.
