The Puerto Morelos Town Square: What do you think?

There has been some complaining in the press about the restaurants that put their tables & chairs in the street in front of their places in the evenings. Critics say that it is dangerous. Others find it part of the charm.

Since we on the subject of the Town Square -- I think it would be a GREAT idea if they shut the Town Square off to traffic starting at 5 pm! Then, restaurants could easily & safely pull out their tables & chairs. Families could stroll about. Artists could set up their wares. I think it would be quite lovely!

What is needed is Public Parking!! Currently, there is a privately owned lot that is south of the town square whose owner is kindly allowing the city to use as free public parking. However, this lot will eventually be developed and PoMo will be short on parking again.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?  Should businesses be allowed to use the streetsides? Do you think it's a good idea to close the park to car traffic in the evenings?

Mexico To Enforce Law that Prevents Pets in Airline Cabins

[UPDATE: This is is a developing story. Click here for the update that was posted since this post was published.]

For those who fly with their animals to Mexico: Be aware that many U.S. airlines are beginning to enforce long standing Mexican laws that prohibit pets from flying in airplane cabins.  Pets will be required to fly in the hold area under the plane.

Airlines say that the changes are at the request of Mexican authorities.  However, critics say that the law is being misinterpreted and that the airlines are using it as an opportunity to charge extra for pets.
