1 Brave Soul

One of the most amazing sights to see in Mazatlan is the cliff diver. Keep in mind the cliff, while not extremely high, is positioned amongst a tremendous number of rocks. So much so that the diver must become somewhat of a meteoroligist - determining the direction of the wind and paying attention to the incoming of the tide. Once he completes the dive, he must swim like the dickens to reach the shore against the current.

That's why I've dubbed the cliff diver of Mazatlan: ONE BRAVE SOUL

Friends

Part of the blessing of this trip was being able to go with friends. The kids all played together very nicely which let the adults relax as well. After watching the cliff divers, we bought hats from a street vendor for the kids. They all looked adorable in their new Mazatlan hats.

Malecon

The malecon is basically a walkway by the ocean. The mlaecon stretches through a good portion of Mazatlan. We walked up the malecon the first full day we were there. We saw a boat dubbed "Carla" and then this man entertained us for a while. He had fish in his hand and held it out for the seagulls to come swooping by until one of them pulled the fish out of his hands. Of course that is when he suggested a donation for entertaining him, but I have to say it was worth it. He kept going and going until we got a good picture.

Mazatlan, Mexico

Last March we went to Mazatlan, Mexico. I came home all excited about doing the album. Of course, I'm still working on it, but here is part of the title page.

We stayed at the El Cid El Moro Tower which was very nice.

The primary mode of transportation in Mazatlan is pulmonia, which basically looks like a golf cart.
