Tourism Down in Sunset Country

First it was the War on Iraq, then SARS and now Mother Nature.
The Tourism industry continues to take a beating across the region with visitor numbers in May and June down 20% from last year.
Executive Director of the Sunset Country Travel Association Gerry Cariou says the rocky start could have a long lasting impact as it could be to late to recover from the lost business.
Cariou suggests it could be a couple of more years before the region gets back to pre 9-11 levels.
