As I look back over the blog for Winter 2010, I can't help but notice that there are a few important features of San Blas that you haven't been introduced to. The heart beat of the town is the main plaza or centro There are constantly events going on here day and night. I know we miss a lot of them even though we only live a few blocks away.
This is the Municipal building where local government is conducted from getting your Internet connected to paying bills and fines.
Most Mexican towns have a church as part of the plaza. This one has been reconstructed on the outside during the last few years. It's looking good!!!
Many local people come to the plaza to sit and visit with friends. Pigeons are fed by a few people. The geode was a gift from a twinned town that has many of them. Strange but true!!!
Finally, the new presidente has implemented free hair cuts for any one who wants to get one. What a unique idea!!! I took my chances with Marta.And that is it for Winter 2010. It was a wonderful winter. We loved it and we will be back!!
Muchos Gracias San Blas!!!!
