collected by :Frank Ithan

The American government is issuing a travel warning for Playa del Carmen after an explosion rocked the area. The city, which is about an hour south of Cancun, was shaken to its core after a bomb went off last month on a passenger ferry boat. Over the past year, there has been a dramatic increase in violence around Playa del Carmen. Despite the travel advisory, CBS News' Travel Editor Peter Greenberg doesn't think anyone should cancel their plans. Now, if you're talking about drug violence and gang violence over the last six years, 60,000 people killed that's Mexican gangs vs Mexican gangs.

Travel warning issued for Americans in Mexico

as declared in The state department is warning people about the dangers of traveling to a popular tourist town in Mexico. Recent violence, like an explosion of a tourist ferry last month, has government officials warning Americans to stay out of Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. Millne says although some are considering backing out of travel plans, three other families booked flights to Mexico through his travel agency Friday morning. He also says that threats are nothing new, and haven't prevented people from traveling to other countries with warnings in the past. "If you look at the state department map right now, that part of Mexico has got the same 'be careful' warning that most of Europe has, that China has, that all kinds of places that we often travel to have," says Milne.
