| Green spaces are an anomaly in beautiful downtown Catemaco City, Veracruz. Possibly the beach side of the Malecon could be considered a green area, but that beach is usually just a boat parking lot. So where can my dogs poop? A beautiful spit of land called "La Punta" juts into Laguna Catemaco from the city's northern end. About a quarter mile (500 meters) of pristine shore line stretches between The Hotel Koniapan and the Restaurant Gorrel in Playa Espagoya/ Play Isla. Early mornings I love to run my dogs through the area. (Incidentally I did not arrive here with dogs. They adopted me.) If I walk at the break of dawn, the sonorous rumblings of the Howler monkeys on Isla Agaltepec fill the air. The path is just a foot wide, and when the laguna is full, as occurs only after heavy rains, the path leads through water. The first time that happened I had to carry one of my dogs. The other dog apparently has a water hound in his ancestry. Tegogoleros usually are hard at work here diving for their famous Catemaco snails, and frequently dozens of shore birds watch their antics. At the beginning or end of the trail, depending where I entered it, a large tree provides shelter for a large wino community. That would be a nuisance anywhere else, but here in Catemaco they are gentle human beings who greet me with choruses of "Buenos Dias". By then the path widens into a dirt road which then becomes paved in front of the Hotel Koniapan. By now, the dogs have to disappear because further passing into Catemaco is inadvisable. Every city block a has a few canines resentful of any intrusion. Fortunately I just live a block away. (Moved 2007) |
