Around Sayulita

Walking into town from our house we passed by this small creek. It was entertaining to watch cars pass through the murky water. There was a foot bridge so we didn't have to walk in the water.

Kids were everywhere. With their mothers while they cleaned the houses, in the businesses while their mothers worked, and on the backs of trucks as they drove through town. I watched as this young lady was trying to get this crying girl to ride the bike with her.

There are no paved streets in Sayulita. Most roads really need some work! There was also a lot of garbage on the sides of the streets. On Friday someone had gathered the leaves and garbage in little piles on the sides of the street and set them on fire. Everyday we watched men mix concrete right on the streets and fill buckets which were handed up one or two stories to workers who were waiting.

One of the sad parts for us were all the stray dogs and cats. We would often see a pack of three or four of the same type of dog roaming the streets looking for food. Some dogs were injured and some were very skinny.
