So I didn't know they celebrated Halloween in Oaxaca. I always thought it was just Dia de Los Muertos. But we found out tonight they definitely do celebrate it and actually I think they may be better at it than us.

The day started a little craZy. We got in a collectivo heading to Pochutla but going around a corner a big bus and the taxi collided. It was weird, it was all slow mo and I was like just not believing it was happening. The taxi was stuck at first and couldn't go, then the bus move a bit and it took off. The taxi turned around and started chasing it with us in it. I started yelling saying to stop because I paid for tix to Oaxaca and we needed to go right now. So he stopped and we got another collectivo taxi and got to town on time as all went well.

We had a good ride to Oaxaca. Angel didn't get sick, she was very nervous as it is a very windy trip and last time it was really hot but this time was much different. The mountains were so pretty and it's cold up there. There were tons of flowers everywhere, patches of marigolds and then blue, pink and purple flowers. Plus all the pine trees and others are lush green. It was really spectacular.

Anyways we arrived safely and decided to walk to the hotel as it was close. As we came upon our familar street it was filled with flowers pink and orange and the pungent aroma of copal was everywhere. I almost started crying, it was so beautiful and it was everything I dreamed of.

Angel wanted pizza, so I decided to treat her. As we were crossing the Zocalo, all these people came around the corner all dressed up. It was great timing. And even though it had started to rain, nobody cared and everyone was having a great time.

While we were having pizza another big group came by with stilt walkers and it was really fabulous.
I made a video so you can see for yourself.


On the way home we stopped an bought chocolate skulls. Yummy!

and looked at all the other treats.  I bought a holder for charcoal and to put the copal in. This is for the altar that I am going to make tomorrow. You make an altar for the people you loved that have passed on. You place their favourite foods around it and photos and things they liked.

Anyways, I ran out and got us a cup of hot chocolate and it comes with Pan de Muerto for only 15 pesos. Less than a $1.50. So we enjoyed a delicious cup of Oaxaca chocolate.

Now my video is up so I'm going to share it with you and head off to bed. Have a great night everyone.
Hope you had a HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Pan de Muerto- Here is the first Pan de Muerto I have ever seen in person. It was made by my dear friend Elia and it was delicious.

From Wikipedia
The pan de muertos (Spanish for Bread of the dead) (also called pan de los muertos) is a type of sweet roll traditionally baked in Mexico during the weeks leading up to the Día de los Muertos, which is celebrated on November 1 and 2. It is a sweetened soft bread shaped like a bun, often decorated with bone-like pieces. Pan de muertos is eaten on Día de los Muertos, at the gravesite or altar of the deceased. In some regions it is eaten for months before the official celebration of Dia de los Muertos. In Oaxaca, pan de muertos is the same bread that is usually baked, with the addition of decorations
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_de_muerto


People in Zipolite are starting to build their altars. Here are some of the flowers they will use.

From Wikipedia
Some families build altars or small shrines in their homes;[2] these usually have the Christian cross, statues or pictures of the Blessed Virgin Mary, pictures of deceased relatives and other persons, scores of candles and an ofrenda. Traditionally, families spend some time around the altar, praying and telling anecdotes about the deceased. In some locations, celebrants wear shells on their clothing, so when they dance, the noise will wake up the dead; some will also dress up as the deceased.
Public schools at all levels build altars with ofrendas, usually omitting the religious symbols. Government offices usually have at least a small altar, as this holiday is seen as important to the Mexican heritage. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_the_Dead

Blonde Girl Begging Strikes a Nerve


Blog post by Tina Winterlik © 2012

Last week I too shared the photo of the little blond girl on Facebook. I hesitated because I didn't know if it was real or a hoax , I'd even tried to google it to see if it was...like maybe an art project to provoke the feelings that have arose...when you see a white child begging opposed to a brown or black child.

Our world is so warped. And that's exactly what happened. People all shared that photo and you can read what happened at the link below.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — At a busy intersection, a girl with a high half ponytail looks at you as she begs for coins. There is dirt beneath her fingernails and her pink shirt looks unwashed. The image in the photo could fit thousands of impoverished Mexican children who sell gum or beg for money in the streets, but for one thing: The girl in this picture is blond.
The flurry of internet attention to the photo, and the quick way officials reacted, has renewed a debate about racism in Mexico, a nation that is proud of its mestizo heritage but where millions of indigenous people live in poverty and passers-by often barely notice the dark-skinned children begging in the street.


"The solution is not to arrest the mother or take the girl from her," she said. "We should be asking what do we do to help these children?" Read More Here

 I don't know what can be done, but it's sad and there definitely is racism everywhere and my daughter while being half mexican does not look dark like the majority of Mexicans. I'm glad I came home and had her in Canada

My mom and I had discussed the difficulties her father must have endured and still does endure because he is fair and looks more caucasian. While in someways it can be beneficial, at other times when people are not enlightened or educated about racism then sad elements of this arise.

I feel so sorry for the mom now. I feel so much like her but I am fair not dark. I would be horrified if something like that happened to me and I pray it never does and I'm saying lots of prayers for her and that little girl. I am also praying for all the children who have been taken but that no one is looking for them.

Also here in this culture, many times when the father leaves they tell the mother to tell the child he is dead. This is probably why she lied. It's so sad. I hope they will all be okay. Sending love and support to all.

Día de los Muertos-Day of the Dead

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_the_Dead
Day of the Dead (Spanish: Día de los Muertos) is a Mexican holiday celebrated throughout Mexico and around the world in other cultures. The holiday focuses on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died. It is particularly celebrated in Mexico, where it is a national holiday, and all banks are closed. The celebration takes place on November 1, in connection with the Catholic holidays of All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day (November 2). Traditions connected with the holiday include building private altars honoring the deceased using sugar skulls, marigolds, and the favorite foods and beverages of the departed and visiting graves with these as gifts. They also leave possessions of the deceased.

La Calavera Catrina («The Elegant Skull») is a 1910 zinc etching by Mexican printmaker José Guadalupe Posada. The image has since become a staple of Mexican imagery, and often is incorporated into artistic manifestations of the Day of the Dead in November, such as altars and calavera costumes. The etching was part of his series of calaveras, which were humorous images of contemporary figures depicted as skeletons, which often were accompanied by a poem. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Calavera_Catrina

Hi Everyone, Angel's typing for me. I fell down and hurt my wrist, at first I thought it was broken, but it's not luckily, just very badly sprained.

 Last night. I slipped on some rocks and fell down a small trail. I landed on my butt but my wrist bent completely backwards and I heard it go " pop ". It was completely numb, you know that feeling when your hand's asleep. I held my hand and said. " OMG, I think I broke my wrist. "

Angel says : I Burst into tears and dropped my hermit crab coming down.

We went to gloria's and she gave me tylenol and ice and wrapped my hand in a tea towel.

mums tired so I ( angel ) am going to tell this part . she put it in ice and told me to run to Magarita's. I told them she possibly broke her wrist and brenda came zoomin' over.. They thought she cut her wrist off. LOL.

But mum told them and they helped her.

 then I caught a crab which possibly could have been grandma.

so we took mom ( and the crab ) to abuela's and Abuelo Massaged it, Abuela comforted me, and Magarita put Aloe vera on her arm.




Today we went to Pina Palmera and got it massaged, And they gave her a brace and told  her to come back in two days.

 I got to play with some toddlers and had fun. Even got to see a cat so old her voice was cracked with age and sounded like a parrot. " squak sqak sqeak " Send love and preyers to mah mum.

The Flight of the Butterflies- Trailer

WOW! I so badly want to take Angel to Morelia or near there and see the Monarchs. What an lifechanging experience that would be. :D




From WikipediaMonarchs are especially noted for their lengthy annual migration. In North America they make massive southward migrations starting in August until the first frost. A northward migration takes place in the spring. The monarch is the only butterfly that migrates both north and south as the birds do on a regular basis. But no single individual makes the entire round trip. Female monarchs deposit eggs for the next generation during these migrations.[22]

 By the end of October, the population east of the Rocky Mountains migrates to the sanctuaries of the Mariposa Monarca Biosphere Reserve within the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt pine-oak forests in the Mexican states of Michoacán and México. The western population overwinters in various sites in central coastal and southern California, United States, notably in Pacific Grove, Santa Cruz, and Grover Beach. The length of these journeys exceeds the normal lifespan of most monarchs, which is less than two months for butterflies born in early summer. The last generation of the summer enters into a non-reproductive phase known as diapause and may last seven months or more.[8]

During diapause, butterflies fly to one of many overwintering sites. The generation that overwinters generally does not reproduce until it leaves the overwintering site sometime in February and March. It is thought that the overwinter population of those east of the Rockies may reach as far north as Texas and Oklahoma during the spring migration. It is the second, third and fourth generations that return to their northern locations in the United States and Canada in the spring.

How the species manages to return to the same overwintering spots over a gap of several generations is still a subject of research; the flight patterns appear to be inherited, based on a combination of the position of the sun in the sky[23] and a time-compensated Sun compass that depends upon a circadian clock that is based in their antennae.[24][25]

New research has also shown that Monarch butterflies can use the earth's magnetic field for orientation. The antennae contain cryptochrome, a photoreceptor protein that is sensitive to the violet-blue part of the spectrum. In the presence of violet or blue light it can function as a chemical compass, which tells the animal if it is aligned with the earth's magnetic field, but it is unable to tell the difference between the magnetic North or South. The complete magnetical sense is present in a single antenna.[26][27]

Oh Gosh I'm tired, it's nearly 4:30 in the morning here but I just wanted to put up these videos for Gloria of Shambhala. Everyone has been working so hard and you can see that the new paint really lifts Shambhala's Spirits. We've had the greatest time lately...it's been so quiet, there are very few tourist, we've had the beach practically to ourselves. That's a great reason for you to come on down and stay at Shambhala now, as it's so peaceful and tranquil. The waves are gorgeous and everything is lush green from all the rain. Be sure to watch all the videos below, then you will see what I am talking about!

Greetings and Salutations!

Shambhala is a natural rustic retreat nestled on a hillside on the Pacific Coast in Oaxaca, Mexico. We have been in operation for over close to 40 years and have evolved into a colony of Bohemian tourists and expatriots from different countries. 

We are proud to be the only ecologically sound business in Playa Zipolite (zee-po-lee-te). The beach the Zapotecs used for grand visions on their quest for harmony with nature and the universe. 

Shambhala still preserves that vision for our visitors and friends of Shambhala who continue to visit our sacred space at the far end of Zipolite beach for a wonderful respite from the stress of city life. 

Please take a moment to visit our site, we have many blissful experiences to offer.
