[...] is even more fresh paint in Mazatlán’s Centro Historico than I reported back in March here. Some of the painting is just the usual homeowners painting their houses before the rainy season [...]

There are some really great buildings in Maz and you have done a brilliant job of show casing them! Have you been to Puebla? The building facades there are not painted but covered with tiles.

Oops! Lindy, my bad! I’ve fixed the link… and I love the bright colors, too! There is a recently rehabbed house here in Centro that they’re marketing to gringos and they painted it beige! It cracks me up, most people that move to Mexico want color. I think they’ll be waiting a long time to sell. Take care!

It seems like there is ALWAYS a building – or 5 – being re-painted some bright awesome color here! It’s one of my favorite things about Mexico, how it’s perfectly normal to have a barbie pink house or green, yellow, blue, torqouise – ect – anything EXCEPT the American beige, white and brown blas.

Nancy — These are fantastic photographs. I am considering switching blog platforms because of the graphic manipulation limitations in my current program. I assume you are happy that you switched.

Every time I see your photographs of El Centro in Mazatlan, I start thinking that it might be a place worth a long-term visit.
