A stroll through the Plaza del Artista on the downtown waterfront is often a treat for the eyes when local artists have their works on display. Here are some paintings I saw there this week while passing through.

Yesterday Zihuatanejo received its second cruise ship of the week after two and a half years of no cruise ships. The M/S Regata arrived at noon and stayed until 7:00 pm. Unlike Monday's cruise ship, passengers from the M/S Regata were seen strolling around downtown Zihuatanejo. We didn't even see any passengers from the Seven Seas Mariner last Monday except when they passed by in buses on their way to Ixtapa.

In 1998 for our Honeymoon, we did a Mexican Rivera cruise sponsored by Apple Vacations r/t at PV. We had a sea day and that evening after dinner we were out on the deck enjoying the beautiful Jan evening and saw these colored lights on land not realizing till later the lights were from the hotels of Ixtapa. When we stopped in "Z", we did the country tour and went to a ranch, then a pit where the roof tiles were made and had lunch on the beach down the coast. We loved the country side- when we got back to catch our tender we only had a few minutes till the last one left. Never realizing we would come back the following year and fall in love with the area and buying a time share at Pacifica- one morning staying at Dorado walking along the beach at Pacifica we were offered breakfast at El Faro's. The rest is history. "Z" and Ixtapa is the only place we wanted to return to after visiting on a cruise.
