Mar 12, 2009 - Mexico: Zipolite

Arrived in San Cristobal early this morning after a long overnight bus from Zipolite, where we have spent the past five days doing absolutely nothing except feasting, swimming, enjoying cheap margaritas and trying not to get fried in the stinking hot sun. Getting to Zipolite on Sunday, we found we had sadly missed a goa psy party on the Saturday, the remnants of which were still hanging round the beach. There was a full moon party while we were there but more rock and drums rather than psytrance! Stayed in a really chilled place on the...

Feb 18, 2009 - Playa Zipolite

Wednesday February 18…10:15pm Had a better sleep tonight, and again woke up to see a beautiful sunrise out our back window. We had a few choices as to where to head from our lighthouse spot near Playa Entrega. We had heard from Bill and Bonnie that there are a few good free camping spots near Puerto Escondido about 100 kms north west of here.

C'est sous une chaleur écrasante qu'on est arrivée à Zipolite playa. C'est une plage vraiement belle. Ce qui est bien c'est qu'il n'y a pas beaucoup de monde. Quand on regarde de la plage, les habitations, ne sont que des toits en feuilles de banane nommé paiella ou cabanas et ça fait en sorte que c'est comme être au milieu de nul part. Alors comme je vous disais, c'est tranquille c'est donc le lieu par excellence pour se faire bronzer tout nu! Je pourrais vous narer de trés belles scénes mais je vais me limiter à celles du monsieur à poil...

Mar 17, 2005 - Mazunte... petit coin de plage

Ici, ce ne sont pas les mouettes ou les goelans qui plannent au dessus de l´ocean, ici ce sont les pelicans et les buses qui virevoltent et font des piques a toute vitesse pour attrapper les poisson qui sont un peu trop pres de la surface. C´est dans un hotel de cabane en feuille de palme qui domine toute la baie que nous logeons - Iris, Anna les 2 autrichiennes petillantes et moi - retour a mes amoures de vacances... le ciel etoile a travers la moustiquaire de la tente, le bruit du ressac, barbecue de poisson... un petit gout de mon...
