A little about Playa Zipolite, The Beach of the Dead . . .

Playa Zipolite, Oaxaca, Southern Mexico, on the Pacific Ocean. A little bit about my favorite little get-away on this small world of ours.

Zipolite, a sweaty 30-minute walk west from Puerto Angel, brings you to Playa Zipolite and another world. The feeling here is 1970's - Led Zep, Marley, and scruffy gringos.

A long, long time ago, Zipolite beach was usually visited by the Zapotecans...who made it a magical place. They came to visit Zipolite to meditate, or just to rest.

Recently, this beach has begun to receive day-trippers from Puerto Angel and Puerto Escondido, giving it a more TOURISTY feel than before.

Most people come here for the novelty of the nude beach, yoga, turtles, seafood, surf, meditation, vegetarians, discos, party, to get burnt by the sun, or to see how long they can stretch their skinny budget.

I post WWW Oaxaca, Mexico, Zipolite and areas nearby information. Also general budget, backpacker, surfer, off the beaten path, Mexico and beyond, information.

REMEMBER: Everyone is welcome at Zipolite.

Olympics 2012: Mexico outfits at Opening Ceremony #FAIL???

Olympics 2012: Mexico outfits at Opening Ceremony #FAIL???
People tend to be patriotic during the Olympics.
The outfits the Mexican national team wore during the Opening Ceremony were widely criticized.
They were very colorful and used some of the traditional patterns worn by the indigenous of Mexico. But they were designed in bright neon pink, green and orange. They took traditional designs and symbols and made them modern.
They made the worst dressed lists of many and they were trashed on Twitter.
"The 2012 award for @Olympics costumes that looked like someone vomited pure neon all over you goes to…Mexico"
- @dongstoevky
"Que trajes mas feos uso Mexico en el Opening Ceremony de los Olympics, parecian piñatas lmao!!"
"The most ugly suits used by Mexico in the Opening Ceremony of the Olympics, they look like piñatas, lmao!!"
-@Ana_AKA
From Facebook:
"Hubiera sido mejor usar los originales trajes hechos de manos indigenas y no de disenadores que ridiculizaron nuestro folklore."
"It would have been better to use the original suits made by indigenous hands and not by designers that ridicule our folklore."
- Norai Pedraza
Personally,  my first impression was that the outfits were fun. I don't think they made fun of Mexican culture but they tried to celebrate it. They do border on tacky but they got the team noticed.
They certainly weren't worse than Germany's pink and blue jackets or the U.K. team's golden collars that reminded me of the FTD flower symbol.
Anyway, it's not about fashion but sports.
