All this while someone is playing a flute instrument. Who are these people and what is this ritual all about? Well it\u2019s known as The Ritual of the Voladores.<\/p>\n<p>Let me read from this TripSavy Mexico Guide\u2026<\/p>\n<p><em>The ceremony of the Voladores de Papantla is a cultural tradition of the Totonac people of Veracruz state. The tradition dates back to ancient times and has been passed down through the generations. The voladores, &#8220;fliers,&#8221; sometimes called hombres pajaro, &#8220;birdmen,&#8221; launch themselves from the top of a pole of up to 150 feet in height, and slowly descend circling the pole. It is a breathtaking spectacle performed at a great height.<\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5335\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5335\" style=\"width: 293px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010873.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5335 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010873-e1554188199473-293x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"293\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010873-e1554188199473-293x300.jpg 293w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010873-e1554188199473-768x786.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010873-e1554188199473-1001x1024.jpg 1001w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010873-e1554188199473.jpg 1300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 293px) 100vw, 293px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5335\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Voladores de Papantla in Puerto Vallarta<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><em>The ritual begins with five men circling a tall pole. One of the men plays music with a flute and a small drum. They then climb the pole and position themselves on a small wooden rotating platform at the top. The man playing the music is called the caporal. He stands in the center, playing his flute and drum, and does a dance, facing each of the four cardinal directions in turn. This is one of the tensest moments for the audience, as he performs his dance standing at the top of a pole without a harness or any protection.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The platform begins to spin and the four voladores launch themselves off and begin rotating the pole upside down. They are attached by a rope around the waist, but they twist a leg in the rope to maintain an upside down position. The caporal remains at the top of the pole as the others descend. In their descent, each volador circles the pole 13 times\u2014thirteen times for each of the four voladores, for a total of 52 rotations, representing the number of years in the Mesoamerican calendar cycle.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>According to tradition, there was a severe drought in the Totonacapan area of Veracruz, and food and water became scarce, so a group of elders met to find a solution. They decided that a ceremony should be performed to ask the gods to return the rain and fertility to the soil.<\/p>\n<p><em>They instructed some young men of the community to locate the tallest and straightest tree in the forest and bring it back to the village. So the young men set out to find the tallest tree. When they found it, they prayed and performed a ritual to the tree and then they cut it down and brought it back to the village. They stripped the tree of its leaves and branches, dug a hole to stand it upright, and blessed the site with ritual offerings.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Then they performed a ritual to the god Xipe Totec, god of agriculture and springtime, so that the rains would return and nurture the soil and their crops would flourish. The men adorned their bodies with feathers so that they would appear like birds, thereby attracting the god&#8217;s attention to their request. They climbed to the top of the trunk, and with vines wrapped around their waists, they secured themselves to the trunk and launched themselves off of it, spinning in circles around the trunk.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>The Symbolism of the Voladores<\/h3>\n<p><em>The four voladores who descend to the ground represent the cardinal directions, and the caporal at the top of the pole represents the fifth direction (vertical), the center of the universe. The voladores perform in honor of the elements: sun, wind, earth, and water\u2014thus honoring the earth, the passage of time and their place in the universe.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The original performers of the Voladores ceremony would have worn costumes made of real feathers, representing eagles, owls, crows, parrots, and quetzal birds, but nowadays the voladores wear bright colored costumes that recall the brightly colored birds, and the rays of the sun.<\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5333\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5333\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010871.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-5333\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010871-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010871-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010871-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010871-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/P1010871-534x300.jpg 534w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5333\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Voladores de Papantla in Puerto Vallarta<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><em>The costume of the voladores consists a white shirt and red pants trimmed in bright colors with a yellow fringe.

So fun and informative.<\/p>\n<p>Couple things&#8230;I would like to know about the proliferation of pharmacies in PV. So many on each block. Are they government owned or privately owned?

Why?<\/p>\n<p>Also, how do you call 911 from a US or Canadian cell phone? Do the operators speak English? What else do we need to know when calling them for an emergency? Do they use GPS to locate people?

Let\u2019s talk farmacias first.<\/p>\n<h3>Why are There So Many Pharmacies in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico?<\/h3>\n<p>I reached out to one of my trusted Pharmacists in Puerto Vallarta, and here\u2019s what he had to say\u2026.<\/p>\n<p><em>Hola Barry<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Good to hear from you. You bring a couple of interesting questions.\u00a0 The long answer would include the history of Mexico. I&#8217;ll try for the short answer. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Traditionally Farmacias in Mexico have been on the first line of health\u00a0 care . Dr&#8217;s and clinics and hospitals have often had limited availability. The Mexican Pharmaceutical industry flourished due to these and other circumstances throughout the country and provided economical medications.\u00a0 Then the pharmaceutical companies early on developed efficient wholesaling to private Farmacias. Another key factor enabling the establishment of Farmacias is the fact that most are dispatching Farmacias and do not require compounding chemists. Hence the proliferation of Farmacias . <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Tourist areas like Puerto Vallarta have even greater numbers of Farmacias due to the prices generally being so<\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5336\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5336\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20180112_163232-e1554188555199.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5336 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20180112_163232-e1554188555199-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20180112_163232-e1554188555199-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20180112_163232-e1554188555199-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20180112_163232-e1554188555199-630x840.jpg 630w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20180112_163232-e1554188555199-960x1280.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5336\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Puerto Vallarta Farmacias<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><em>much less than in first world economies.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The Farmacia Guadalajara and other large chain stores operate under the same licenses as all Farmacias.

Both have trained EMTs. And the numbers are in the shownotes.<\/p>\n<p>Many of you are full time residents or here for many months at a time and Pam has important tips for you. We have spoken about these with her in a previous episode so if you haven\u2019t heard that show, just type in Healthcare Services PV in the search bar on my website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.puertovallartatravelshow.com\">www.puertovallartatravelshow.com<\/a> and you will find it, or I have a link to the episode in the shownotes, so listen if you haven\u2019t already. Here\u2019s her sage advice\u2026<\/p>\n<p>No matter what your age, your health issues, your financial condition, your marital status, or your country of origin, there are a number of things you simply SHOULD NOT put off doing:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Compile a comprehensive list of emergency contacts, both local and international\u2014names, emails, phone numbers, relationship to you. Keep this list updated and give a copy to a trusted friend or neighbor.<\/li>\n<li>Compile a list of your meds by name and dosage and contact info for all your doctor(s), both local and international. List your blood type, any allergies, and include a copy of your insurance information.\u00a0 Keep the list updated and give a copy to a trusted friend or neighbor.<\/li>\n<li>If you have pets, designate a trusted friend to care for them if you are unable to do so\u2014and let that friend know they are your designated care-giver. Compile a list of these care-givers, their contact info, your vet\u2019s name and contact info, any meds your pets are taking, and any other necessary things to know about your babies.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure that a <u>trusted<\/u> friend has access to your home. Some condos ask that owners provide door keys; if you are incapacitated, it\u2019s important that someone can enter to assist you.\u00a0 The police are not allowed to do so until a court order has been issued\u2014do you really want to wait that long?\u00a0\u00a0 If you live alone, make a pact with a friend to check on each other regularly.<\/li>\n<li>If you\u2019re a homeowner, make a copy of the first few pages of your escritura and add this to your emergency file.<\/li>\n<li>Designate a place in your home to keep all these lists\u2014a drawer, a file cabinet, a closet shelf\u2014and tell someone where that place is. But don\u2019t just put these documents on a shelf and forget about them\u2014update them regularly.\u00a0 Outdated information is as useless as no information at all.<\/li>\n<li>Register with your consulate. In an emergency, they will have your back.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To register with the US Consulate: <a href=\"https:\/\/step.state.gov\/step\/\">https:\/\/step.state.gov\/step\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To register with the Canadian Consulate: <a href=\"http:\/\/travel.gc.ca\/travelling\/registration\">http:\/\/travel.gc.ca\/travelling\/registration<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Keep this info under a magnet on your refrigerator\u2014they speak English:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Ambulancias Aura \u2013 322-209 0622<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ask them to call Pam Thompson to advise where to transport you. She can also arrange for the physician(s) to be ready and waiting at the hospital.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Keep Pam Thompson\u2019s phone number (322-107-7007) in your speed dial and her email (<a href=\"mailto:pamela@healthcareresourcespv.com\">pamela@healthcareresourcespv.com<\/a>) in your email contacts. Pam should be your first call in an emergency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Contact her now and ask about her PLUS Plan\u2014lots of good discounts on medical procedures and they keep a comprehensive medical record on you, invaluable in an emergency.<\/p>\n<p>The Bottom Line:<\/p>\n<p>Get all your information together,<\/p>\n<p>Keep it updated, and for goodness sake, tell someone where it is!<\/p>\n<p>So, there you have it Farmacias and Emergencies and the 911 system.<\/p>\n<p>Links and all the info, right there in the show-notes.<\/p>\n<p>Great questions Cheryl and I hope to see you and your husband in May. I can\u2019t wait to get back to paradise.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s get to the interviews.<\/p>\n<h3>The Brisket Man in Puerto Vallarta<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5310\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5310\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140449.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-5310\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140449-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140449-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140449-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140449-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140449-533x300.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5310\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Stefan The Brisket Man<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The last time I was in Vallarta I did a double take as I walked up Basillio Badillo, among the Mexican street vendors with their souvenir stands along the little primary school there, there was a Caucasian dude,<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5309\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5309\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140155.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5309 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140155-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140155-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140155-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140155-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/20190115_140155-533x300.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5309\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Brisket Man Puerto Vallarta<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>selling brisket sandwiches of all things.
