Hi everybody,
My name is Dana Pommet and my wifeĆ¢ā¬ā¢s name is Josephine. I was born in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in 1942, and except for a tour in the Navy, lived there for most of my life. I retired to Delray Beach, Florida in December 2000. We love to travel and photography goes hand and hand with that. I went digital about 5 years ago and started posting November 22, 2008. I have met so many wonderful people on RR and that makes this whole process so much more interesting than just posting photos. Thanks for all the comments and keep them coming.
Update ĆĀ January 2012:ĆĀ After hiding and denying my mild Dyslexia, for most of my professional life, and now fighting with itsĆĀ advancement Ć¢ā¬ā I want to thank you all for putting up with my poor typing skills and spelling problems.ĆĀ I know that my spell checker hates me and I now depend completely on audio books rather then actually reading printed books. ĆĀ Life marches on!ĆĀ ĆĀ ĆĀ

At the sight of so many colors, I think that the shopping area at Puerta Maya is a attraction to see :) Wonderful photo.

I find the stars are most beautiful ... such a great pity that they have to be destroyed, by hitting the c..p (sweets) out of them ! but then again wouldn't it be funny, if they were filled with baked beans - instead ? LOL fine capture Dana, BB [sorry to say, I haven't been around much, to comment - but I'm a little pre-occupied with my upcoming BIG trip to Europe, I rarely travel and find it overwhelming]

Preparing for your trip should be your top priority and your second priority is to bring back a bunch of fantastic photos!

With this colorful scenery, people might have more fun shopping. Superb shot, Dana. I like the contrast of the colors against the blue sky.

A very fine photo and I have gleaned a lot more info by reading the comments.

Pinatas are very traditional at Mexican parties. They are filled with candy, treats and small prizes. The children are blindfolded and given a stick. Each child is given a few swings and when the PiƱata is broken open, the children all rush in to gather as mach candy as possible. To be honest, many adults get wacked with the sticks before the candy falls free.

Growing up in southern California these were a common thing at parties...not as easy to break as you might expect, though, most of the time! Great capture!

I have seen so many funny video's of bystanders getting whacked instead of the Pinata's that they should come with a serious health warning or at least some PPE (personal protection equipment)...LOL Nice colourful capture Dana ! ~Cheers~

It must be a wonderful sight for a child to see all those colorful shapes hanging up there against the blue sky. Maybe they should hang some origami up there too! ;)
