Though I'd start this with some pictures from Las Vegas yesterday morning. Winter Wonderland. 
The desert and the mountains, this area is Red Rock Canyon. All of this snow was clear across town from where we live. Instead of snow our area got strong winds. Our neighbor walked around our home to make sure we didn't lose any shingles from our roof. No damage, but a lot of homes did.
Back to Mazatlan. A pretty sunset from our balcony a couple of nights ago. And breakfast at the beach the next morning.
I am starting to get my pictures mixed up cause I use my camera and my phone. Most of these are from the phone. Yesterday we went to La Antigua in Centro for breakfast. Then walked around the area for a while.
As we were walking past this amazing huge bougainvillea I realized I didn't see a trunk. Was it coming from the roof? or from the building? Walked across the street to find out. Notice the tree with the orange flowers on the roof. 
So I walked under the bougainvillea to see where it was growing from. It was growing out a window!
Maybe it was originally in a pot and just outgrew it. You wouldn't think it could keep growing as big as it is.
Can someone please buy me and give me some TLC?
Lots of TLC. The rest of the buildings on the block are in good shape. The two story one really sticks out. There are trees growing up from inside the corner one.
Several years ago when we were still bring the RV down here this building was being restored. They were painting it blue ???dark blue?? when we left. Looks like that was the end of the restoration. The windows are covered with black plastic. And the one on the left end never got painted around. What happened? They had done a lot of work on the inside too.
I like the way the paint changes colors when a new home starts. This one needs a little work outside.
Caught my eye on the front of one house. Was it at one time a fountain, or is a roof drain?
Art gallery, hotel and restaurant in Plazuela Machado
Another quote on a utility box. "Only he who has stopped fighting is defeated."
And another one. "And I'm going to make a dictionary, with the words of love in the language of the gods, to sing to the heart." Mexican composer.
The beautiful work and arcade of the restaurant.
Looking into an art gallery.
A couple blogs ago I showed this building the front has the murals on it.
This plaque is on the front of it. Interesting.
The building on the left is now a retirement home. It's claim to fame is Herman Melville wrote part of Moby Dick while staying there.
Just checking if there were new murals in this parking lot. We always used to park here when visiting Centro. Nothing has changed.
Old buildings and a government building at the end. Ugly.
Painting on a door. Pieces of art in unexpected places.
A tour group getting instructions for riding a Segway.
These are on most of the poles. They are for cigarette butts.
One of the statues along the Olas Altas area.
We went right by him but I didn't react quick enough to get all of him.
Skyline of Malecon. More ani more highrises.
We were at hotel for a while then went out to dinner. Another busy day.
