Greetings 6,740 El Sayulero Subscribers,

cinco de mayoHappy "Cinco-de-Mayo-long-weekend" in Mexico. Although the streets and beaches have been a lot quieter this week, Sayulita is expecting more visitors to town over this holiday weekend as the country celebrates the anniversary of the victory over the French in the battle at Puebla. See the story below about both the 5th of May and 3rd of May holiday celebrations in Mexico.


Although the surf has been down this week, locals and visitors are hoping for a south swell over the weekend.

 

If you have not made it downtown to the Sayulita Farmer's Market yet this season, now is the time as the final Sayulita "Mercado Del Pueblo" located on Calle Pelicanos along the river towards the beach will be next Friday May 13th. The Sayulita Farmer's market will re-open in November 2011. Be sure to check out all the organic produce and great natural, healthy products available.  

 

Lindsay WalterNew Editor:  It is my extreme pleasure to introduce Lindsay Walter as the new Editor of El Sayulero newsletter and website.  For the past year and a half, Lindsay has been working as an article contributor as well as compiling all the weekly submissions for publishing.  This is no small task and I am honored that Lindsay has accepted the formal position as Editor.  Congratulations Lindsay as we all look forward to reading your El Sayulero intros as well as the stellar job you do for the Sayulita community with every edition published.


El Sayulero Summer Schedule:  Though hard to believe, it's that time of year again. We are already into May and the Sayulita high-season is winding down as we make the transition to low-season, with hotter days ahead and a much more tranquil scene as part-time residents continue to head North. The El Sayulero has begun its bi-weekly summer schedule; expect the next issue to arrive to your inboxes on Friday, May 20th.

 

Sayulita MagazineSayulita Magazine Update:  This massive undertaking is almost ready to come to fruition.  The 66 page full-color glossy magazine has been delivered to the printers and they have promised us 4,000 copies by next Thursday.  Fingers are crossed that Sayulita residents will be able to pick up copies around town next Friday.

 

Thank you to all our readers and contributors for another incredible high season in Sayulita. It just keeps getting better here in paradise.

 

Ian Hodge

General Editor: ElSayulero.com


=========================================
Saludos a los 6,740 lectores de El Sayulero,  
 

Feliz cinco de mayo en M�xico. Aunque las calles y las playas han estado mas tranquilas esta semana, Sayulita espera recibir m�s gente para este puente cuando M�xico celebra la victoria de la batalla de Puebla en que los mexicanos corrieron a los Frances. Ver el art�culo abajo para ver mas sobre el 3 y 5 de mayo.

 

Aunque no hay muchas olas ahorita, los locales y los visitantes est�n esperando un swell para este fin de semana.

 

Si aun no has ido al mercado del pueblo esta temporada, ahora es el momento ya que el �ltimo Mercado del pueblo ser� el pr�ximo viernes 13 de mayo. El mercado del pueblo esta ubicado por calle pel�canos llegando a la playa por el r�o. El mercado del pueblo abre de nuevo en noviembre. Vayan a ver todos los productos naturales y org�nicos que ofrecen.

 

Ediciones de El Sayulero en Verano: Es dif�cil creer, pero ya llego esa �poca del ano. Ya estamos a mayo y la temporada alta casi termina y esta llegando otra temporada baja mientras los d�as se ponen mas y mas acalorados. El pueblo se ve mas tranquilo ya que muchos de los residentes que se quedan solo la mitad del a�o empiezan sus viajes al norte. El Sayulero ya comenz� con ediciones bi-semanales. Llegara la pr�xima edici�n de El Sayulero por correo el d�a 20 de mayo. 

 

Nueva Editora: Me alegra presentar Lindsay Walter como la nueva editora del bolet�n y sitio web El Sayulero. Durante el ultimo a�o y medio Lindsay ha sido una escritora contribuyendo art�culos y armando el bolet�n de El Sayulero. Esto no es una peque�a tarea y me alegra que Lindsay ha aceptado esta posici�n formal como la editora. Felicitaciones Lindsay, esperamos sus introducciones de la semana y el trabajo que haces para la comunidad con cada edici�n de El Sayulero.

 

Noticias de la Revista Sayulita: Este trabajo masivo casi se realiza. La revista de 66 paginas y 4,000 tirajes ser� entregada para el pr�ximo jueves. Esperamos que todos en Sayulita disfruten leerla para el pr�ximo viernes.

 

Gracias a todos nuestros lectores y contribuyentes por otra temporada alta increible. Aun viene lo mejor!

Paving Road on Calle Miramar   

By Leah Jewall

 

Preparations for street paving began on calle Miramar this Thursday morning around 10am. A big yellow grader appeared and started levelling and grading the length of Miramar from calle Revoluci�n to calle Palmar, leaving behind piles of gravel the length of the street, and decimating the small garden plot outside of the bookstore's main gate. By mid-afternoon another grader and a dump truck had joined the busy work force.  More > 

 

Los preparativos para la pavimentaci�n de calle Miramar comenz� este jueves a las 10 de la ma�ana. Una grande motoconformadora amarilla apareci� y comenz� a nivelar la longitud de Miramar desde la calle Revoluci�n hasta la calle Palmar, dejando montones de grava en la longitud de la calle, y diezmando la trama peque�o de jard�n al exterior de la puerta principal de la librer�a, y a media tarde otra motoconformadora y un cami�n de basura hab�an llegado a la fuerza de trabajo.   Mas > 

 

Mexican Holidays May 3 and May 5 

By Leah Jewall

 

holy cross day

May 3rd is Day of the Holy Cross in Mexico, and is also celebrated as Mason's or Worker's Day. The tradition is to place a cross at a construction site where building is underway. Workers say a prayer or mass at the site; the engineers, architects or managers of the project provide enchiladas, beer or soft drinks, and everyone takes time out to eat and party together.   More > 

 

El 03 de mayo es el D�a de la Santa Cruz en M�xico, tambi�n se celebra como D�a de los Alba�iles. La tradici�n consiste en colocar una cruz en una obra en donde la construcci�n est� en marcha. Los trabajadores dicen una oraci�n o una misa en el sitio, y los ingenieros, arquitectos o administradores del proyecto ofrecen enchiladas, cerveza o refrescos, y todos participan y disfrutan juntos de la fiesta.  Mas >

Who Is AnimaLove?

 By Sayulitanimals 

 

AnimaLoveGabriel Tonatiuh Trejo and Marcia Alvarez Garcia are the incredible vets and owners of Animalove veterinary clinic, once located in Bucerias. Over a year ago a Sayulita resident recommended these two talented vets and their tremendous compassion and desire to help all creatures to Sara Briner, the president of Sayulitanimals.

The Secret Life of Books
"The Kitchen's God Wife" 

 By Maria Zache 

 

The Kitchen God's WifeOne of the luxuries of spending part of the year in Sayulita is the opportunity for reading. Though I keep myself busy and involved within the community, I do have more time to read and occasionally steal a lazy morning in bed reading in my pajamas, until the hour makes it seem indecent to do so. Each winter I have read something a little meaty, maybe a book I wouldn't have tackled while in the North because of its length or subject matter. I have reread Kafka and Edgar Allen Poe and read for the first time Gone with the Wind, Lonesome Dove and Dr. ZhivagoMore >

Uno de los lujos de gastar parte del a�o en Sayulita es la oportunidad de leer. Aunque me mantengo ocupada y participo en las actividades de la comunidad, tengo m�s tiempo para leer.  De vez en cuando robo una ma�ana tranquila, y me quedo en la cama leyendo en mi pijama, hasta la hora hace que parezca indecente para hacerlo. Cada invierno leo algo un poco pesado, tal vez un libro que hubiera dejado en el norte debido a su longitud o tema. He rele�do Kafka y Edgar Allan Poe y le� por primera vez Lo que el viento, El Paloma Solitario y Dr. Zhivago.  Mas >

GPS: Why Do People Volunteer?  
By Grupo Pro SayulitaVolunteer GPS
 
I'm so appreciative of all the folks who have spent a few hours "way too many hours" helping Grupo Pro Sayulita. Why do we do it? Personally, I must say that it's satisfying to see results - which you tend to feel much more easily in a small town than in a larger city.  But even here, it can be difficult to know that you are making a difference.   For example, efforts to keep streets cleaned last season have been long forgotten by most, but what some of us know is that those efforts allowed for a trial run of a system. Now we are working on finding ways that those efforts can continue on a regular basis. More >

Estoy tan agradecido a todas las personas que han pasado unas horas "demasiadas horas' ayudando Grupo Pro Sayulita. �Por qu� lo hacemos? Personalmente, debo decir que satisface para ver resultados-que usted puede notar mucho m�s f�cilmente en un pueblo peque�o que en una ciudad m�s grande. Pero a�n aqu�, puede ser dif�cil de saber que hace una diferencia. Por ejemplo, los esfuerzos de mantener las calles �ltima temporada limpiada ha sido olvidada mucho tiempo por m�s, pero lo que algunos de nosotros sabemos es que esos esfuerzos permitieron un sistema para ser experimentado y ahora trabajamos en encontrar maneras que esos esfuerzos pueden continuar una base regular. Mas >

  Surf: Cuatro de Mayo       
cuatro de mayo

By Justin Henderson 


I had bowed out of writing a Surf column this week, due to a couple of things. Not much surf, too many words, and...my wife took a fall a few days ago, wrenched her knee, and has been laid up. So I've been nursing her along, and I have not been on any "surfing safaris" or anywhere else by car except to see a doctor deep in Vallarta. So I'd written off surfing and written off writing about it this week.  More >
 Got A Mop?   

By Josh and Shelly

 

Fitness

When I was using the mop to wipe Tabby's sweat from the floor during today's Power Ropes class, I started thinking that our weekly challenges have been pretty easy on you so far: go for a surf, take a hike, do some yoga, breathe... So as we kick off Physique Transformation Month in Sayulita, and the pools of sweat around Tabby grow bigger, we're turning up the heat on you too. In fact, right now is the perfect time to present everyone with a challenge that goes beyond the norm, and lasts longer than this week.It has 3 parts, lasts at least 30 days, should be adjusted to fit your goal and fitness ability, and requires a mop if done properly.  

More >  

 
Cuando estaba con la fregona para limpiar el sudor de Tabby de la palabra durante potencia la clase de hoy Cuerdas, empec� a pensar que nuestros retos semanales han sido bastante f�cil en que hasta el momento: ir a navegar, tomar una caminata, hacer algo de yoga, respirar. .. As� como poner en marcha Physique Transformaci�n Mes en Sayulita, y las piscinas de sudor alrededor de Tabby crecen m�s grandes, estamos subiendo la temperatura en ti tambi�n. De hecho, ahora es el momento perfecto para todos los presentes con un desaf�o que va m�s all� de la norma, y dura m�s de esta semana. Tiene tres partes, dura por lo menos 30 d�as, debe ser ajustada para adaptarse a su objetivo y la capacidad f�sica, y requiere una fregona si se hace correctamente. Mas > 
 
 Yogic Detox        

By Narayani

 

Yogic Detox

Is yoga an effective method of detoxification? It may be, but it may depend on what you want to detoxify. While it makes sense that yoga asana practice could detoxify the physical body, there actually are no scientific studies that prove that. But the main toxin for the yogi is avidya-misperception of the true nature of the self; identification with our body, thoughts and feelings, rather than with the Absolute, Divine Self; thinking that there is a "you" that is separate from others-and the yoga practices can definitely clear that away.  More >

 
El yoga es un m�todo eficaz de la desintoxicaci�n? Puede ser, pero puede depender de lo que quieren desintoxicarse. Si bien es l�gico que la pr�ctica del yoga asana puede desintoxicar el cuerpo f�sico, de hecho hay estudios cient�ficos que demuestran eso. Pero la toxina principal para el yogui es avidya-percepci�n err�nea de la verdadera naturaleza del yo, identificaci�n con nuestro cuerpo, pensamientos y sentimientos, en lugar de con el Absoluto, Ser Divino, pensando que hay un "t�" que est� separado de los dem�s y las pr�cticas de yoga puede definitivamente claro que la distancia.  Mas > 
 
Pet of the Week:  "Orejona"    
Orejona
This beautiful female puppy is going to be big and would make a perfect guard dog. She is territorial and very vocal, but easy to train.  She is about 4 months old, healthy and spayed. She loves to play and would do well with one other dog, preferably male, or a devoted human.  She can be very strong willed and needs the attention of an owner who is strong but kind.  She is very wary of strangers and will need love and patience.  She is also intelligent and adapts well.  If you would like a loyal and protective pet, she is for you.


For information and/or donations, please come visit the Sayulitanimals' table on Fridays at the Farmer's Market.

To adopt this pet or make a donation, please contact sayulitanimals

Orejona 2Esta hermosa cachorra crecera a ser grande y seria una perra guardiana perfecta. Es teritorial y muy vocal pero facil de entrenarla. Tiene aproximadamente 4 meses es saludable y ha sido esterilizada. Le encanta jugar se llevaria bien con otro perro de preferencia un macho y seria buena compania para un humano. Es muy testaruda pero amigable y requiere el afecto de un dueno amable pero estricto. Es cuatilosa con los extranos y necesita amor y paciencia. Es muy inteligente y se adapta muy facilmente. Si quieres una mascota leal y protectiva, esta perra es para ti.
