Greetings to our 7,682 subscribers,

Plaza

Spring is here and already the sea is starting to warm up, perfect for surf enthusiasts. Semana Santa is around the corner and the town is gearing up for the influx of Easter and spring break vacationers, both nationals and internationals who will be visiting our beaches. The downtown construction is finally beginning to wrap up, though there is still quite a bit more work to do in the streets and plaza, including concealing the electric cables underground. Sayulita's notable arch in the plaza received a fresh layer of cement this week and appears to be ready for a new coat of paint; meanwhile the rest of the plaza has been painted a beige color with bright pink accents. Already locals and visitors are sitting in the re-modeled plaza and enjoying the downtown views.

 

Also in full swing this week is the construction at the entrance of town on our new entrance archway. Traffic has been re-routed around the construction and workers are progressing rapidly to finish before the Semana Santa holiday. 

 

Thank you to all of our contributors and readers of El Sayulero. Enjoy the articles below.

=========================================
Saludos a nuestros 7,682 suscriptores,

Lleg� la primavera y el mar ya se esta calentando; el agua es perfecta para los surfistas. Pronto ser� Semana Santa y Pascua y el pueblo esta prepar�ndose para el aumento de vacacionistas nacionales e internacionales que pronto vienen a visitar nuestras playas. La construcci�n en el centro del pueblo ya est� comenzando con los acabados, aunque falta todav�a en varias calles en la plaza, incluyendo la sumersi�n de cables el�ctricos. El hist�rico arco de Sayulita recibi� otra capa de cemento esta semana y sellador, listo para ser pintado, mientras el resto de la plaza ahora lleva color beige con toques de rosa mexicano. Los locales y visitantes ya han empezado a sentarse en la plaza para ver la vista del centro.

 

Adem�s, sigue la construcci�n del nuevo arco grande a la entrada del pueblo. El tr�fico se desv�a por el alrededor de la construcci�n y los trabajadores est�n progresando r�pidamente para terminar justo a tiempo para Semana Santa.

 

Gracias a todos los contribuyentes y lectores de El Sayulero.

Jardin de Colores  
By Angela Long-Lambert

A young, fresh project has begun to flourish at the Sayulita Public Primary school that is being spearheaded by two young women with enthusiasm and a vision. After running the library and English program last season, Shoshana Rose came back to the Primaria wanting to do something more creative and more free form. On her last stop at Whole Foods before leaving the Untied States for Sayulita, she saw a book titled, How To Make A School Garden. She was instantly inspired.  More

Cairns in Sayulita 
By Kimber Lopez

Located at the far North end of the beach, small stacks of purposefully balanced rocks stand firm in front of the roaring sea, where a backdrop of waves breaks upon the steep, black jagged rocks. These balanced rock structures that stand without falling, built for a variety of reasons, are called Cairns. Cairns can be found throughout many cultures and countries, and now Sayulita has its very own display.  More 

 

Situado en el extremo norte de la playa, peque�os montones de piedras equilibradas prop�sito mantenerse firme frente de la mar rugiente, donde las olas rompen a la empinada roca irregular y negro en el fondo. Estas estructuras de piedras equilibradas que paran sin caer, construidos por una variedad de razones, se llaman Cairns. Cairns son encontrados en muchas culturas y pa�ses, y ya Sayulita tiene su propia exhibici�n!  Mas

Pet of the Week:  "Tanner"      

Tanner

Tanner can be summed up as simply the ideal family dog. This lady equally loves to run alongside you or curl up across your lap. She is affectionate, loyal, and protective. She is best suited as an only pet, but takes kindly to male dogs. She is a touch insecure, and female dogs seem to provoke her. Unfortunately she has yet to find a family suited to her energy and devotion. Tanner is young, healthy, very intelligent, and ready to be part of your life.      

Contact Sayulitanimals to adopt or donate.

Tanner se describir�a como el ideal perro familiar. A esta hembra le encanta correr a tu lado o dormirse en tus piernas. Es muy cari�osa, leal y protectiva. Es mejor que sea la �nica mascota de casa pero se lleva bien con otros perros machos. Es un poco insegura y otras hembras suelan provocarla. Desafortunadamente no ha encontrado hogar adecuado donde compartir su energ�a y devoci�n. Tanner es joven, saludable, muy inteligente y lista para ser parte de tu familia.

Sayulita Srpuces Up


While the construction on the streets of Sayulita is still going strong--and still a big mess, the few streets that are finished look great! And lots of the businesses have taken this time to repaint and redesign their outdoor space. This place is going to be completely beautiful when it's finally finished

  

Mientras la construccion en las calles de Sayulita sigue en marcha, y sigue en un estado de relajo, las pocas calles terminadas se ven fabulosas. Y muchos negocio han tomado el tiempo para repintar y redisenar sus espacios exteriores. El pueblo se vera muy bonito cuando todo se acabe.
