Art on Vacation

Earlier this summer Jeremy and I took the girls on a trip to Sayulita, Mexico, with his parents and brother's family to celebrate my in-law's 40th anniversary. It was a wonderful trip filled with lots of fun experiences. As we explored this beautiful, small town, with cobblestone streets, I was struck by the art I found everywhere! From shop signs, to painted menus, mosaics at the fish shop, to murals on the walls, we were surrounded by art!

Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

The work of the artist is to lift up people's hearts and help them endure.

Art is the signature of civilizations.

La Bufadora

The mossy area right below the blow hole

I promise this is the last day of cruise photos. We got some nice shots of an area in Ensenada known as La Bufadora. It translates as "Snorting buffalo." It is a naturally occuring blow hole in the rocks. The amount of water that it sprayed varied and surprised quite a few onlookers. There is a similar blow hole on Kauai that we are fond of called spouting horn. It does not spray as high as La Bufadroa. I enjoy these natural phenomenons and encourage you to check them out if you are ever near one.
