El Sayulero Front Page

When Barbara and I first arrived in Sayulita for the winters, we started to take Spanish lessons with Liliana at the bookstore. Taking Spanish classes was also the social thing to do - we met many of our friends at those classes. They were fun, although an older adult "student" class meant that our minds were no longer ‘sponges' and that many things had to be repeated. I joked with Liliana that first day that she and I would grow old together. I tried to convey to her how difficult it was for me to learn a language.

If you have ever passed through Camaron Campground parking lot on the North side of Sayulita, an impressive grove of palm-like trees greets you. The fanned out "branches" create an arc of symmetry, towering to impressive heights, and providing abundant shade. These plants are known as the Travellers Palm and are a beautiful addition to many ornamental landscapes throughout town.
