A RAINBOW OF COLORS
One popular notion is that Mexico is a colorful place. We find that to be true here in Bucerias. Houses and fabrics display a wide palette of bright, festive hues. Probably some of that is for the touristas, but much of it seems genuine joy of happy colors. The typical construction of concrete allows ‘whitewash.’ While white, beige, and other neutral colors dominate, folks do not limit themselves to subdued exteriors. And color is applied to ironwork as well as buildings. The sun and sea exact a toll, however. Colors fade and wrought iron will rust without routine upkeep.
So here are just a few pictures of some colorful abodes and businesses around town. Many are on the other side of the highway. No pictures were edited, they are straight out of the camera.
