Cuastecomate surprise

I hadn't been to Cuastecomate in quite awhile and I read an article about many improvements and making the beach accessible for disabled people. Someone that lives there also made a list of changes like sewer, waste treatment and underground utilities .... but neither gave a hint about the current progress. 

Turns out the place is a complete mess and must be a real pain for those that live there. We went on a weekend  so it was crowded and we parked about 4 blocks up from the beach on the entrance road. Beach is still nice even though it was raining. If I had known I'd probably have waited a few weeks ... or maybe months?.

New Secondaria construction

Stopped by to check out the new school construction and they are sinking pilings for the foundation. The holes are 6 meters deep with a large 'tube' of re-bar down the middle later to be filled with cement. The old play field was over a meter higher than the old school but they have added another meter of crushed rock on top of that to avoid any chance of flooding. Much more work to go but they haven't stopped for the last month. Hope the money hold out.
