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.

Mexico Olympics team small but distinctive All are skiers and they'll don Day of the Dead ski suits for their events

Mexico Olympics team small but distinctive

All are skiers and they'll don Day of the Dead ski suits for their events

The 2018 Olympic Winter Games kicked off yesterday in PyeongChang, South Korea, where a small but instantly recognizable Mexican delegation of four were ready and eager to compete.
Despite a dearth of ski hills in Mexico — there is only one ski resort, located in Coahuila — all of the Mexican athletes will be competing in skiing in alpine, cross-country and free-style categories.
And all will wear distinctive ski suits with a Day of the Dead theme.
Only two of the team members were actually born in Mexico, and one doesn’t even speak Spanish. But all expressed pride to be part of the team, the biggest Winter Olympics contingent from Mexico since 1992, when 20 Mexican athletes traveled to France.
This year is also the first in 16 years that the team has consisted of more than one athlete.
Veteran Olympics athlete Sarah Schleper, 38, has competed under the star-spangled banner of the United States four times, but now represents Mexico after marrying her husband in 2007 and obtaining her Mexican citizenship seven years later.
“I feel lucky to represent such a beautiful country; my family is Mexican, and I am proud to wear its colors,” she told the newspaper El Universal.
Rodolfo Dickson, 20, is also competing in alpine skiing. Originally from Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, he was adopted at the age of three by a Canadian couple. Dickson does not speak Spanish because he has lived most of his life in Canada.
PyeongChang is his first Olympic Games, and attending them fulfills a long-held dream.
“I don’t live in Mexico but I am very proud of the place where I was born,” he said.
“I really want to start something new,” he told USA Today. “There are a lot of young guys in Colorado who could represent Mexico, so in a few years I hope there will be a big team and athletes capable of being really successful.”
Mexico is represented in the cross-country skiing category by Germán Madrazo, 43. Born in Querétaro state, the businessman has lived in Texas for the past 10 years.
Madrazo is relatively a newcomer to winter sports, having taken to cross-country skiing just last year. Still, he was fortunate enough to be named the flag bearer during yesterday’s opening ceremony.
The Mexican delegation is rounded out by Robert Franco, 24, who will be competing in freestyle skiing. A native of San Jose, California, Franco holds dual nationality thanks to his father, who was born in Jalisco.
Franco began skiing at the age of two, coached by his father. He also trained in the U.S. before joining the Mexican team.
“It is a huge honor to be pioneering this sport in Mexico,” Franco told USA Today. “It’s shocking how awesome the response was in Mexico. I thought everyone would be saying, ‘He lives in the U.S.’ But no, it was like, ‘You’re one of us, you’re family.'”
“We all know that our country is not known for winter sports; however, when you have a dream you try to reach it. I hope that us four dreamers participating in PyeongChang can be an example of what can be achieved,” he told El Universal.
The four Olympians arrived in South Korea under the wing of Mexico’s Winter Olympics veteran Hubertus von Hohenlohe, a German playboy whose antics have earned him the “world’s most interesting Olympian” title for his outfits in prior games.
During his participation in the 2014 Sochi Games as the single Mexican representative, von Hohenlohe wore a mariachi-themed suit, and donned a desperado-themed outfit for the 2010 Vancouver Games.
Von Hohenlohe descends from German royalty but has represented Mexico in alpine skiing at five Olympics, qualifying for citizenship because he was born in Mexico City.
Now 58, von Hohenlohe did not qualify for PyeongChang but he has taken on an organizational role instead. His touch will be recognizable, as he designed and arranged for the manufacture of distinctive Olympic clothing and uniforms emblazoned with a Day of the Dead theme for the team.
The Mexican-German athlete might have taken a back seat at this year’s Olympics, but his “most interesting” title remains firmly in his grip. Yesterday he released a song called Austin, protesting President Donald Trump’s plan to erect a wall between the United States and Mexico.

Oaxaca city admits traffic is not very fast

Too many vehicles on streets not designed for them among the problems

The Oaxaca city government admitted this week that its traffic is indeed slow after a study revealed the average speed of vehicles in the city is the slowest in the world.
A study by the United Nations found that the lack of a high-capacity public transportation network was a key problem.
The poor design of city bus routes means that 90% of the buses cross the narrow, colonial-era streets of downtown Oaxaca.
A second reason is the ever-increasing number of vehicles that take to the streets every day. Over the last decade, the total number of vehicles has grown from 50,000 to 180,000. Estimates indicate that one-third of all vehicles registered in the state are in Oaxaca city.
Another factor is that many motorists, unable to find a place to park, simply double-park and effectively obstruct traffic flow
Those conditions are enough to cause traffic to go haywire on any given day, but throw in the near-daily protest marches and roadblocks and parts of the city become impassable for long periods.
Mayor José Antonio Hernández Fraguas acknowledged there is a problem but stressed that a fundamental factor is that most of the important thoroughfares were never designed for vehicles.
As for possible solutions, Hernández suggested restricting the entry of vehicles in the center, imposing a speed limit of 30 kilometers per hour, enouraging greater use of bicycles and creating more pedestrian corridors.
Many streets in neighborhoods surrounding the city’s historic center have too many poorly installed speed bumps and traffic lights, the mayor said, and the latter lack the necessary technology to be synchronized.
The day when motorists and public transportation users can get to their destination in time might still be a long way off, but measures implemented by recent municipal administrations have proven successful.
Hernández, who has been mayor for just over a year, has continued to implement the “1 by 1” program created by his predecessor in 2014, in which traffic lights have been removed from strategic intersections. Motorists must now yield instead, allowing one vehicle from each street to enter at a time.
The measure has not only sped up traffic at those strategic points of the city, but has also had a positive effect on the number of traffic accidents reported. They have dropped by as much as 80%.
The Inrix Global Traffic Scorecard showed that the average speed of traffic in Oaxaca during peak hours was just 5.9 kilometers per hour, barely faster than walking. By comparison, the average traffic speed during peak hours around the world was 14.4 km/h.

Gastronomical event with traditional cooks April conference showcases Oaxaca food and cultural diversity

https://mexiconewsdaily.com/news/gastronomical-event-with-traditional-cooks/?utm_source=Mexico+News+Daily&utm_campaign=90aefe8f65-newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f1536a3787-90aefe8f65-348153685

Gastronomical event with traditional cooks

April conference showcases Oaxaca food and cultural diversity


Oaxaca’s traditional cooks want to draw international attention to the state’s gastronomy and diversity.
With that in mind, Oaxaca city will host the second annual conference of traditional cooks in April this year, when more than 100 cooks from the state’s eight regions will showcase Oaxaca’s cultural diversity.
Event spokeswoman Adriana Aguilar Escobar said most of Oaxaca’s traditional cooks carry on their work anonymously and without any recognition.
But the conference gives them a space where they can showcase their skills with pride, she explained.
More than 30 booths will display Oaxaca products and 30 artisans will exhibit traditional cookware.
Cooks will also offer courses in traditional cooking, making dishes such as pozole triqui and caldo de piedra. There will also be a presentation on mezcal by the Ibero-American University.
Additionally, a nutritionist will offer health classes for children on the importance of Mexican food, especially focusing on the consumption of beans and corn.
The conference will take place April 25-28 — the 486th anniversary of Oaxaca city — in the Plaza de la Danza.

Alarm in three states as volcano erupts Popocatépetl's eruption yesterday was heard in states of México, Puebla and Morelos Mexico News Daily | Wednesday, January 31, 2018

Alarm in three states as volcano erupts

Popocatépetl's eruption yesterday was heard in states of México, Puebla and Morelos

Don Goyo is having none of the cold wave taking over Mexico: an eruption at the volcano yesterday could be heard in three states.
Popocatépetl, as it is officially known, erupted at 4:21pm yesterday, releasing a towering plume of smoke and heavy ash concentrations that soared three kilometers high.
The burst was head in the states of México, Puebla, and Morelos, startling residents, some of them still reeling in the aftermath of the strongest earthquake felt in central Mexico in decades.
The people of Tetela del Volcán, in Morelos state, clearly heard the bang and felt the tremors caused by the volcanic activity seven kilometers away.
In Amecameca, México state, the explosion and its effects were mistaken for an earthquake.
“It sounded like thunder . . . shaking all the glass in doors and windows, we thought they would shatter,” a resident told the newspaper Milenio.
The National Disaster Prevention Center (Cenapred) reported that the major eruption was preceded by 48 low-intensity releases of fumes and water vapor, four volcano-tectonic earthquakes and four minor eruptions.
Ash was carried to the northwest of the volcano, toward the greater Mexico City area.
Cenapred’s volcanic alert has steadily remained at yellow, phase 2, meaning that the release of water vapor and gas plumes is to be expected, as is the light fall of ash in nearby areas accompanied by incandescent fragments.
The alert level also warns of the possibility of eruptions causing pyroclastic flows and mudslides carrying debris, although at such a small scale that evacuation of neighboring inhabited areas is not required.
Still, Cenapred asked that the people residing in the municipalities of Huitzilac, Tepoztlán, Tlayacapan, Totolapan, Tlalnepantla, Ocuituco, Tetela del Volcán and Zacualpan de Amilpas heed any updates on the warnings and alerts, and avoid approaching the volcano.
