Excellent information for a very special day in Mexico.

I haven’t been to Mazatlan in decades but spent plenty of time there from the ’70s through the ’90s. Saddened to see this basic hygienic issue hasn’t been addressed yet. Hopefully, Mr. Streit’s article will light a fire under the person who can rectify it.

Very good and timely article. This is by Eric Streit and is adapted from his article written for the February edition of the Pacific Pearl.

This is a major event for Mazatlan. Tourists, scientists and the curious will flood into Mazatlan. Maybe more than for Carnaval. Very interesting to note the path through Mexico and into the USA.

Very interesting history. Just an overview but insightful.
Thanks Rich.

Another great Christmas story, Rich. Here in Mazatlán during the past week I’ve visited and witnessed several of the Fiestas that are associated with the Posada. Both streets to my home were blocked Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights with parties going on all night. Very colorful with lots of food, music and dancing. One new innovation is the loudspeaker which can be heard for blocks away, involving the neighbors in the celebration, whether they wish to be involved or not.

Thanks Rich. This is an excellent guide to begin understanding the festive way that Mexicans enjoy the holiday season. I’ve been to a couple of Posadas and they are a lot of fun.

Thanks Rich, You improved it a lot. Love the pictures.

This is a very informative article. Thank you Rich, I really enjoyed it. 

What a great article, Rich. I thought I knew all there was to know about eclipses from my science classes all those years ago. Very thorough and interesting.

Interesting story! I wonder who will be the next challenger.

I am old enough to remember Paul Harvey and this is a great ‘rest of the story’ article.
Thanks for the information.

Fascinating information. Hats off to the folks who put so much time and effort into this worthwhile project.

We will be down in December and will certainly try and come by to see you.

Wow: He/or she seems to have driven off unaware of the chaos going on around him. Incredible!

Thanks for this insight, it was very informative. We usually don’t drive when we go to Mazatlan, but walk or take a cab.
