In Penasco, Raymond? Someone recently posted about Jill's Consign and Design on Fremont. More info here: http://www.rptimes.com/sandy-spain/2011/09/finding-paradise-3/

Actually, it moved the day that there were sustained gusts of 25-35 mph, this Tuesday, the day of the 30-car pileup in Picacho. Those palms were bending hard, surprised the cam was still there!

I look at this site almost every day at work, have it running in the background. My co-workers think I'm kind of crazy, but can't stop staring at that skyline. "Look at the wind blowing those palms!" "Oh, kind of overcast. Nope, there comes the sun." "Ooh, there comes a jet-ski vendor on the...

Yes! That's what I was hoping. I completely forgot that half of the reason everything was torn up earlier in the year was to lay the new electricity lines, and that went all the way up to the last location of Portofino, though they did not put the same nice paving they have on the new Malecon...

Beautiful photos! I've been meaning to take a side-trip down there for a while, not to fish, but just to check the place out and hang on the beach for the day. Was wondering, how much did he charge to take you out in his boat that first time? We were just thinking of making our own mini...

Whoa, so do you mean not only the main road coming into the Malecon, meeting up where it's already been paved, but in addition to Alcantar, the road leading out of the area going the opposite way, plus 10 de Julio (or whatever the other name is locals use), which is the road after the finished...

Can someone who has read the Spanish version of this please explain this Google translation? The project will go until the end of the year??? And what does it mean about a single street? They're only going to do one side of the street at a time? From that photo it appeared as though they were...

If they just made it so that people couldn't park on at least one side of the street on the left where the construction isn't happening, going the other way (like the side along the Friendly Dolphin), they could easily guide folks through that street as a detour. Think they could round up some...

But they ARE repaving the area just before the dive shop this week, where some of those others have started selling fish, leading into the Malecon. Or is this part of the article referring to the other end of the bay, where you actually dock the boats?

OH, I see, friends of his are saying, if you are going to tear up the pavement, why not put something nice in there, like red brick or cobblestone, instead of just repaving it. Oh, and placing some sort of a sidewalk so you don't have to walk in the dirt or in the road.

Hah, comment from the guy who posted the pic, in English, replying to my query, "Is the Malecon completely blocked off? No access other than by foot? How long will the construction last?" "Martin Martinez There is still access to all Old Port .. Will last until completed :) welcome to Penasco"

If you can't see the pic, it shows the road going into the Malecon being completely blocked off starting at the V-intersection where the roads split off into one-way streets. The road coming back, going down the hill after the Friendly Dolphin, is not blocked off, but it doesn't appear that...

Cue Cool Hand Luke ditch-digging scene.

Had a bad feeling this was going to happen. Just too ambitious for a town going through such a downturn. I bet if they just focused on completing the movie theater and adding tenants later it would have caught on. It's almost like some weird machismo or bravado these builders and their investors...

When you do google maps like this, you need to change it to the longitude/latitude coordinates. This link only pulled up a general map of Penasco. Or is it just me?

And now I'm noticing a line connecting the two...and is that a PORT-O-POTTY!?!?!

Hahaha, OK, now I get the joke. Were those set up by the new clam divers? What exactly is the point?

OH, and this: "...as long as they do not come from one of the quarantined countries by Mexico or are home made." That explains a few situations others have complained about.

seems as though someone complained about their milk being taken, or eggs, but i guess if you put hard-boiled eggs in a Tupperware container, that's not considered in the original packing. same thing goes for cheese in a zip-lock bag. and if the gallon of milk was already opened...
