Tulum

Tuesday, July 9th, 2013

El sábado pasado fui a Tulúm, es un lugar donde me encanta ir, en lo personal creo que es uno de los mejores lugares del mundo, no por que conozca mucho pero lo que he viajado no se compara con este paraíso.

Salimos de Playa del Carmen rumbo a Tulúm por la mañana, hicimos exactamente 40 minutos en coche, paramos a desayunar en Puerto Aventuras que es un fraccionamiento residencial con marina y continuamos nuestro recorrido.

Decidimos ir a buscar algún club de Playa donde pudiéramos disfrutar y fue difícil la selección ya que hay muchos y muy buenos lugares donde pasar el día.

Llegamos por fin a un club de Playa, el lugar tiene unas típicas cabañas tropicales de palapa y madera de la región, tan rústico pero tan característico de este lugar. El día estaba espectacular, un cielo de un azul brillante sin una sola nube, el sol en su máximo esplendor, el mar con sus aguas tranquilas listos par recibirnos.

A quien no se le antoja disfrutar de uno de estos días llenos de sol, paz y vistas hermosas.

Ir a Tulúm es siempre una experiencia muy agradable ya que el lugar en sí tiene mucha magia, buena vibra, energía, en un ambiente multicultural donde el servicio y la hospitalidad ofrecida son una más de sus encantos.

Existen muchas actividades que puedes realizar como, snorkelear, bucear, tours por los canales mayas, visita a las zonas arqueológicas o simplemente dar un paseo en bici por toda la zona turística donde hay restaurantes, bares, tiendas y una vista hacia el mar inigualable, existen cosas que hacer para diferentes gustos.

Por la tarde se puede ir al pueblo y caminar por la Av. principal donde hay también una gran variedad de tiendas, bares y restaurantes donde puedes disfrutar una deliciosa comida, hay para todos los gustos, desde una buena comida casera mexicana hasta algún restaurante gourmet.

Como cualquier lugar turístico, existe mucho desarrollo y la gente va en busca de ese tipo de destinos con más frecuencia, Tulúm es uno de ellos.

El crecimiento que ha tenido en los últimos años ha sido muy rápido y en la actualidad ya podemos encontrar propiedades en las cuales invertir con diseños modernos, otros más rústicos y para cualquier tipo de presupuesto.

n puedes encontrar buenas oportunidades en terrenos o departamentos en pre-venta que son excelentes opciones de inversión.

Te gustaría tener un pedacito en este paraíso?

RMUFF

Friday, October 5th, 2012

The Riviera Maya Underground Film Festival has begun in Playa del Carmen its seventh consecutive year. RMUFF offers many events and workshops, all open to the public, each year different filmmakers, musicians, producers, and writers from various countries gather in Playa del Carmen in order to participate in open film culture forums. This year should be as interesting and informative as lasts. The Riviera Maya Underground Film Festival is an outlet of expression, although held in Playa del Carmen, every nationality is welcome to participate the point is to celebrate art in its full range, using either full-length movies or shorts as a means of expression.

From October 3 to October 7, 2012 many hotels, restaurants, beach clubs and city plazas will offer their space so these talented artists can show their work. The films are divided into the following categories: Documentary, experimental, animation, fiction and college student shorts.

Having many artist friends I had never attended until last year, thinking that the film would all be a little bit too experimental for me, however I watched an amazing documentary of how mescal is made. Sitting in the municipal plaza, with a nice breeze, and a beautiful night sky, I vowed to return the following year. I’m sure not all of you are movie fans or artists, but there is something to be said about the amazing subjects some of these films touch. Also a free movie under the stars is not a very common occurrence. I recommend, if you have the opportunity, to attend at least one showing, you never know what you may see or learn, thanks to last years experience I can now explain how mezcal is made in detail! If you are thinking of a last minute trip Moskito Vacation Rentals has available condos and last minute discounts for you.

Viva Mexico!!

Friday, September 14th, 2012

On Midnight on the morning of September 16 our “Grito” of Independence will resonate from every town square of every city in Mexico. Mexican Independence is celebrated on September 16, not on May 5 like many believe, when in 1810, the first Grito was given by Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla in Dolores, Guanajuato, when after ringing the church bells a loud proclamation was heard throughout the small town, “Long live our Independence! Death to bad government! Long live or Lady of Guadalupe!”

 

Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla was a priest in the town of Dolores, tired of inequality and a corrupt government, began a movement in hopes of becoming an independent country. Although the original grito was given in 1810, there wasn’t an organized army fighting, a few guerillas were formed in a few states, such as Vicente Guerrero in Oaxaca and Guadalupe Victoria in Puebla, yet the lack of unity and organization almost led the whole movement to collapse after 10 years of fighting. In 1820 Augustin de Iturbide, originally a Colonel in the Spanish army, was sent to Oaxaca to fight against Vicenete Guerrero’s rebel army, and in a strange twist of fate ended up joining the cause for independence. Augustin de Iturbide was able to convince his troops to fight for him by coming up with a peace treaty known as El Plan de Iguala, which outlined the establishment of Catholicism, social equality for all ethnic groups and the proclamation of independence. Finally in September 1821 Iturbide proclaimed the independence of Mexico as New Spain.

 

The Grito has changed since the original day, however the custom has not. Every year on September 15 the city and town government squares begin to fill as night falls. Food vendors and flag vendors stand around the squares, while waiting spectators wait until the clock strikes 12, at which point the town representative begins to ring a bell and yells out:

 

¡Mexicanos!

¡Vivan los héroes que nos dieron patria!

¡Víva Hidalgo!

¡Viva Morelos!

¡Viva Josefa Ortiz de Domínguez!

¡Viva Allende!

¡Vivan Aldama y Matamoros!

¡Viva la independencia nacional!

¡Viva México! ¡Viva México! ¡Viva México!

 

 

Mexicans!

Long live the heroes that gave us the Fatherland!

Long live Hidalgo!

Long live Morelos!

Long live Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez!

Long live Allende!

Long live Aldama and Matamoros!

Long live National Independence!

Long live Mexico! Long live Mexico! Long live Mexico!

 

For those of you that are in the Riviera Maya this weekend, I urge you to go see the Grito, if you have not experienced before. I am proud to be Mexican and be a part of this amazing tradition. Through echoes of VIVA! and clapping it is a truly amazing experience. It reminds me that no matter how discontent or disappointed one can become with their country, that night all Mexicans come together to remember that we are the people, we are the essence, WE ARE MEXICO!

 

Greetings from the tropical waters of the Riviera Maya!
