We're seeing a significant decrease. Summer was slower than usual, and August, while usually slow, is officially "dead."

The good news for us at least is that the fall looks pretty good. We get a lot of convention travel in New Orleans in the fall, and that business seems less affected than our summer travel, which is more vacation travelers using their own money.
