Greetings 6,404 El Sayulero Readers,

While everyone knows how much I love to state how everything in Sayulita is near-perfect, our residents and visitors alike have been experiencing cooler temperatures this past week and chillier evenings than definitely not the norm. These have been some of the coldest days and nights anyone can remember in recent history.  Last night the ocean in front of the Sayulita beach was boiling with wave activity, making for dramatic beach walks and sea views. Travelers coming to town will need to pack a couple extra sweaters, long pants, and even a jacket is not out of the question.  Although it's been unusually cool this time of year for beach-goers, it's a great time to check out the local shopping, restaurants, boutiques, the Farmers Market today and the Sayulitanimals Bazaar also taking place today in the plaza.

 

Sayulita photo book 

Photographer and our El Sayulero photo-of-the-week contributor, Donna Day, has recently put together a great keepsake photo book of iconic images and snapshots of Sayulita locales and people. The photo book called "Sayulita" is for sale through blurb.com Click here to view more photos from the book and then make sure to check out Donna's photos of the week below, highlighting images from the book. This very colorful book will make a great gift or souvenir from our charming Sayulita. El Sayulero extends a Super Congratulations to Donna on her accomplishment! 

 

Superbowl fans in Sayulita, don't miss out on this Sunday's Big Game. Take in the Green Bay Packers vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers at a variety of Sayulita establishments including Don Pedros Restaurant, Calypso Restaurant, Afortunados' Restaurant and Yo Yo Mo's Sports Bar.

 

Thank you again for reading El Sayulero,


Ian Hodge

=========================================

Saludos a los 6,404 lectores de El Sayulero,    

Los residentes y visitantes de Sayulita han visto temperaturas mas bajas durante esta semana con noches mas fr�as que se espera en esta �poca del ano. Anoche el mar estaba picado perfecto para un camino dram�tico en la playa y bonita vista del mar. Viajeros llegando a Sayulita tendr�n que empacar su�teres y pantalones. Aunque hace mucho fr�o para pasar un d�a en la playa, es un buen momento para disfrutar de las tiendas y boutiques en el pueblo, ir al mercado del pueblo hoy y ver el bazar de Sayulitanimals en la plaza hoy.

 

Fot�grafa y nuestra contribuyente de las fotos de la semana para El Sayulero ha publicado un libro de fotos con imagines de lugares y gente del pueblo. El libro de fotos que se llama Sayulita se vende por blurb.com. Haz click aqu� para ver fotos del libro y tambien ver las fotos de la semana abajo estacando unas fotos que se encuentran en el libro. Este libro colorado es un regalo perfecto o un recuerdo de nuestro pueblo encantador.

 

Los fanaticos en Sayulita del superbowl pueden ir a ver el partido de los Green Day Packers vs. Pittsburgh Steelers este domingo en varios establecimientos en Sayulita incluyendo Don Pedros Restaurant, Calypso Restaurant, Afortunados Restaurant y Yo Yo Mos Sports Bar.

 

Gracias por leer El Sayulero.

  February 2011 Bridge Update

  The Shocking Sight of the Cancle
in Sayulita
 
cancle

By Octavia & Daniel

 

It's startling, even "nightmarish" the first time you see one on your bedroom wall, as you prepare for bed. A large black spider-like creature with long thin legs and a hairy pair of thick barbed pincers. Many local people believe they are poisonous, even deadly, but this is not true!  Even though they look like they are from some monster movie, they are completely harmless. Cancles have no venom, have no stinger, and are not at all dangerous to humans. More >

Es sorprendente, incluso "pesadilla" la primera vez que ve uno en la pared de su dormitorio, mientras se prepara para la cama. Un gran animal negro ara�a con patas largas y delgadas y un par de gruesas pinzas peludas de p�as. Muchos de los habitantes creen que son venenosos, incluso mortales, pero esto no es cierto! A pesar de que parece que est�n de alguna pel�cula de monstruos, que son completamente inofensivas. Cancles no tienen veneno, no tienen aguij�n, y no son en absoluto peligrosas para los seres humanos.Mas >

  Surf: A Good Board is Hard to Find
 
boards

By Justin Henderson


Almost every surfer I know has a favorite board, long or short, old or new, custom-designed or off the rack. Where you got it or the name on the deck or how cool it looks doesn't really matter (although there is nothing wrong with a little hot pink wax or a paint job inspired by Roy Lichtenstein or the Laughing Buddha). What matters is that your favorite board works for you. Call it a synthesis of style-yours-and substance-your board.  More >

Grupo Pro Sayulita: Who Lives Here?
Successful People With a Sense of Humor
 
GPSGrupo Pro Sayulita

Have you ever gone to the beach to people watch?  I bet I can tell you something about visitors who come to Sayulita - the majority are the types who will not go on a cruise, or to a gated resort in Puerto Vallarta.  They come to our town to have a "different experience," one that is outside the mainstream.  And of those who then decide to move here -- to purchase or build here -- what kind of people are they?

�Nunca ha ido usted a la playa a mirar a la gente? Apuesto que yo puedo decir algo sobre los visitantes que vienen a Sayulita - la mayor�a de ellos no pasarian en un crucero, ni ir a un resort encerrado en PV. Vienen a nuestro pueblo para tener una "experiencia diferente," una que est� fuera de la corriente principal. �Y de los que entonces deciden mudar aqu� -- comprar o construir aqu� -- qu� clase de personas son ellos?

Sayulita Sea Camp: A Great New Kids Program    
sayulita sea camp

By: Andrea Villarrubia 


While many adults I know would be happy to lounge on the beach doing nothing all day on their Sayulita vacations, sometimes the kids require a little more structure and stimulation to keep them engaged and happy. Fortunately, Sayulita offers plenty of activities to keep the kiddies from slipping into boredom, like surfing, boogie boarding, horseback riding, and our local zip-line canopy tour. Adding to all of this fun is the newly hatched Sayulita Sea Camp, an educational and entertaining program for kids age 4-10.  More >

Mientras que los adultos que conozco estar�an feliz de descansar en la playa sin hacer nada todo el d�a en sus vacaciones de Sayulita, a veces los ni�os requieren un poco mas de estructura y estimulaci�n para mantenerlos ocupados y felices. Afortunadamente, Sayulita ofrece un mont�n de actividades para mantener a los kiddies de caer en el aburrimiento, como el surf, boogie, paseos a caballo, y nuestro Canopy tour local.  Agregando a todo esto la diversi�n es el nuevo Sayulita Mar Camp, un programa educativo y entretenido para ni�os de 4-10.

  Transport To Europe from Sayulita -> Guanajuato  
By Maria Zache
Guanajuato
Walking the tree-lined, stone streets of Guanajuato, I felt immediately transported to Europe. Somehow, a drive of several hours from Sayulita had landed me and my husband in a city where I almost expected the language of choice to be French or Italian.

  A Difference Made in Sayulita  

By Sayulitanimals 


sayulitanimalsSayulitanimals' Spay and Neuter Clinic was a complete success. Sixty-eight dogs, twenty cats, and one rabbit were either spayed or neutered in the three day campaign, a total of eighty-nine animals! Dr. Charlotte Burns operated every day for over nine hours a day, nearly non-stop. Her vet tech, Bliss Fisher, along with a stellar volunteer team kept all the after-care and clean-up running smoothly and professionally. More

La cl�nica de esterilizacion de Sayulitanimals fue todo un �xito. Sesenta y ocho perros, veinte gatos, y un conejo fueron esterilizados en la campa�a que duro tres d�as, un total de ochenta y nueve animales! Dra. Charlotte hizo operaciones cada d�a por m�s de nueve horas al d�a, casi sin parar. Su asistente, Bliss Fisher, junto con un equipo de voluntarios estelares mantuvieron todos los animales en cuidado despues de cirugia ayudaron con la limpieza de las instalaciones profesionalmente y sin problemas.

Photo of the Week:
Sayulita Photo Book
 
Well, after 10 years of shooting in Sayulita, and the last year of shooting for El Sayulero, I decided it was time to commit some of these pictures that I love to print. So I put together a photo book of this sweet little town called Sayulita in hopes that all of you who enjoy Sayulita for part of the year, can have part of it with you for the rest of the year. Below are some pages from the book, titled, of all things, S A Y U L I T A ...!! You can look at a preview of the book and purchase it online at this link: http://www.blurb.com/books/1961922 (there's a tiny little "buy" option on the bottom left of the preview)

Bueno, despu�s de 10 a�os de tomar fotos en Sayulita, y el �ltimo a�o de estar tomando photos para El Sayulero, decid� que era hora de imprimir algunas de estas fotos que tanto me gustan. Por lo tanto, he elaborado un libro de fotos de este pueblo peque�o y dulce llamado Sayulita con la esperanza de que todos los que disfrutan de Sayulita por parte de la campa�a, puede tener parte de ella con  para el resto del a�o. A continuaci�n se presentan algunas p�ginas del libro, titulado, de todas las cosas, Sayulita ...!! Usted puede ver una vista previa del libro y comprarlo en l�nea en este enlace: http://www.blurb.com/books/1961922 (hay un diminuto "comprar" la opci�n en la parte inferior izquierda de la vista previa)
