I am falling in love with Mazatlán all over again. I have not been here for awhile nor as regularly when we used to stay as snowbirds in the past; I had forgotten how much fun it is! Looks like all the houses on my favourite street, Angel Flores, have had a new coat of paint!Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09223040482420514208noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38866913.post-2981835455830606052018-03-24T06:58:00.003-07:002018-03-24T06:58:49.948-07:00New Paint Job<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Although not dilapidated, in all the years I have been coming here and staying in El Centro this building needed something to bring out its beauty. A new paint job and doors did the job!

Ezequiel Ojeda is a strong tenor with a masterful presence. He gave an outstanding performance Thursday night at the Museo de Arte de Mazatlán. His accompanist was also very talented and performed well. After 3 trips to the museum, I was sold the last available ticket and considered myself lucky. I had forgotten how getting one's needs met in México can be very challenging, especially if not fluent in the language. During the program I tried to be unobtrusive with my iPhone camera, realizing that my larger "good" camera would be difficult to conceal so the photos are not as good as I wish they could be. Incidentally, do you like the hair colour of the woman who was sitting in front of me? PS. Because there are so many varied activities in El Centro, it is one of the many reasons I love Mazatlán!<br />

My first night back in Mazatlán El Centro's neighbourhood offered some surprises. I walked around to check the changes, and found that some things are the same but there are some differences--improvement of streets, curbs and sidewalks are a huge and welcome change. I found that the Art Museum has a musical performance tonight for which I will buy tickets, and some of the restaurants are the same but others have closed their doors. I was delighted to find some good jazz.and 7 musicians jamming together. Many of the snowbirds have returned home, but some of the remaining musicians get together and perform at the Mazatlán Film and Theatre place on Constitución 209. Will return there tomorrow night for a movie. I even peeked into a church service for a few minutes before finding my evening meal at a small family restaurant a block from my inn. Although I am alone without friends or family, I will find enough to do to keep busy yet I intend to do much relaxing.Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09223040482420514208noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38866913.post-59260296500463564182018-03-21T20:58:00.002-07:002018-03-21T20:58:38.264-07:00Approaching Mazatlán<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Since most snowbirds have left Mazatlán already and the season here is almost over, the flight today from St. Paul had breathing room with a fair amount of empty seats. I gave my aisle seat to a family travelling together so they could sit together, and the flight attendant moved me to a row all by myself. Heaven!<br />

It was a quiet flight with a terrific cabin crew. I suppose when I leave next week the plane will be full with people going home from vacation and for religious holiday.Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09223040482420514208noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38866913.post-3960096143393766262016-02-05T06:50:00.000-07:002016-02-05T06:50:46.746-07:00Good-bye Mazatlán<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

No, I am not promoting religion, but this symbol from the NidArt Gallery shows how I feel about Mazatlán, México. My heart is heavy because I have to return to the world of ice and snow. My heart remains in Mazatlán!</div>

In several earlier posts I introduced you to some of the enterprising <a href="http://kate-mazatlanmexico.blogspot.com/2016/01/la-madre-y-las-hijas.html">family members</a> who operate several businesses in or near the Plaza Machado. In one of the rooms of their NidArt Gallery stands a revolving statue of a very lovely young woman: the fountain gently sprays water as the statue rotates.Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09223040482420514208noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38866913.post-23012189977914889422016-02-03T07:30:00.000-07:002016-02-03T07:55:52.466-07:00Theme Day Again!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I spent a great deal of my pesos in this small cafe. While there many mornings, I noticed this young man who seemed quite popular with the senoritas. Whenever he was there, and when a young woman came in, invariably they engaged in conversation with him. I enjoyed watching and listening to them despite not understanding the language. Because it is a short walking distance from the Art and Music school on the Plaza Machado, from various clues I surmised that he is involved in the institution one way or another. I was very happy just to watch the interaction between and the women who came into the cafe.</div>

Loa Molina is an artist that crafts beautiful masks of leather. She sells her work and those of other artists in the gallery, NidArt, located in the Plaza Machado, which she owns and operates with her husband. They bought their casa located on Carnaval 26 years ago and established their gallery at their prime location 3 years later. By coincidence I earlier had met her two daughters at the Saturday Market where they were selling delectable bakery goods. Both young women, Nida and Anis help at the gallery, a family-run business, but also have careers of their own. Nida teaches yoga and Anis has majored in culinary arts. Also by coincidence the family owns and operates the cafe across from the gallery, where I hang out when I crave a good latte that I get made to order because I like it muy caliente. I feel very fortunate to have made these delightful connections during our short stay here. What a lovely, gracious, and enterprising family!</div>

After some inquiries and a lucky snap of the grandmother and her granddaughter, I learned that la abuelita lives in la casa that has been in her family for generations, and she is well-loved by her neighbours. Because it is such prime real estate in the Plaza Machado, she has had many lucrative offers to sell her home, but she has steadfastly refused. One of the shopkeepers has promised to introduce her to me before I leave for home. I am anxious to greet her formally at her casa with its beautiful outdoor garden.Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09223040482420514208noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38866913.post-88492470628260298442016-01-27T05:00:00.000-07:002016-01-27T06:23:53.391-07:00¡Magical Evening!<br />

Last Saturday we enjoyed a wonderful evening of music, good food and conversation sponsored by Mazatlán Animal Rescue. Proceeds went to the group that rescues stray animals, neuters and cares for them and places them for adoption. Food catered by Cosmos was delicious and the music was magical. The musicians volunteered their time and talent. What a great event!<br />

There are many fine restaurants in Mazatlán, one of which is Topolo's. Good food and good service. We often visit at least once before we leave. I particularly enjoy eating in the outdoor space that is enclosed within the establishment.Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09223040482420514208noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38866913.post-13315170666504589172016-01-23T05:00:00.000-07:002016-01-23T05:00:06.939-07:00Saturday Market<br />

Saturday Market on Zaragosa is well attended by many of the snowbirds and expats living in the city.<br />
There is a myriad of food items to savour and buy: delicious cheeses, produce, delectable bakery items, fruit, jams and jellies, and much more. Tables and chairs are set up so if you are so inclined, you can enjoy coffee with your pastries and food. <a href="http://kate-mazatlanmexico.blogspot.mx/2016/01/adorable-abc-wednesday-a.html">Volunteers at animal shelters</a> often bring adoptable animals to show off. A little something for everyone! Today I'll go again to see what more I can buy and enjoy! Have to get there early to get the best of the goodies.<br />

Carnaval in Mazatlán will begin February 4, 2016. Already festivities are being organized for the huge event that lasts through the 9th. Selection of princesses is underway and statues are being placed strategically around the city and along the Malecon. This one is located in the Plaza Machado. I've included a smaller photo of it so you could better visualise the actual size of these statues.</div>

Mario whom you have already met <a href="http://kate-mazatlanmexico.blogspot.mx/2016/01/narcissus.html">here</a> is missing! He is an escape artist, or so it seems. He is very affectionate, and we really miss him. If you see him around the Plaza Machado, or anywhere else in the city, grab him and bring him back to Loro de Oro Inn at 622 Constitucion. We are leaving in a week so I would like to see him again before we go back to frigid Minnesota.<br />

There are an abundance of signs of every variety in Mazatlán. In many cases one does not need to know Spanish to understand what is being advertised or sold.<br />
