| EN UNA PANGA - LOS ARCOS |
 |
| MAHAHUITAS |
After a short time snorkeling in 77 degree water, we were joined by several tour boats whose orange life-jacketed passengers immediately jumped into the water. We sped away in our panga to Mahahuitias, the wonderful, long palm-lined beach for a swim, and then motored a few minutes further south to a gorgeous little cove where dozens of multi-colored fish were waiting for us in the clear, emerald green water.
El Tuito is part of the municipality of Cabo Corrientes, where the coastal cape of Jalisco marks the southernmost point of the Bay of Banderas. Although part of the one-hour drive south is along the gorgeous coastline, as the road begins to climb, palm trees fade away and pine trees begin to appear. El Tuito is a traditional rural Mexican town with a central plaza and bandstand surrounded by arcades with small restaurants and stores, some of which sell the local cheese, organic coffe and raicilla. Raicilla, a distilled spirit which originated in Jalisco, pre-dates the Hispanics. Like tequila and mezcal, it is a product of the blue-ish green agave plant. Originally illegal and sold as "moonshine," raicilla is now legal.

The clinic in Tuito was very busy. Kai and her friend Magda Salinas Ortega, a teacher at the secondary school, showed me a nearby dirt road filled with dogs. I spoke with the owner, who promised to bring all of them, except the tan and white male Pit Bull, to the clinic later in the day. He did, and was surprised to see a Pit Bull in a kennel waiting to be spayed.

non-sterilization and a lack of education, there are thousands of homeless cats
and dogs living on the streets in Puerto Vallarta. There are many hundreds waiting to be adopted
in foster homes, sanctuaries and the
Centro de Acopio. If you can foster an
animal, have found a cat or dog, or would like to adopt a cat or dog, Please
