Zihuatanejo-Ixtapa Message Board - Won't You Let Me Take You On A Z Cruise?

Oo wee, baby. :jam:

Thought I'd share a few photos from just cruisin' around. If you drive around the back streets of Ixtapa then you're probably familiar with most or all of these scenes.

This is the parking lot behind Los Patios Shopping Center.

It seems like the Lluvia de Oro trees are blooming everywhere.

The Tibouchina trees are also blooming all over the place.

I can recall when Parota trees like these dominated the landscape in Ixtapa.

The government is preparing several scenic lookout spots along the Carretera Escénica La Majahua. Here you can see the storm system that's been over Zihuatanejo this weekend when it was still a day away to the south.

We love walking from the main entrance of Pacifica Resort to the center Ixtapa. When we came down the first time in 1999, it was the beauty of the boulevard coming over the hill from Z and all the way to the Marina. Most of the time we walk and then catch a taxi back with our purchases. Some days it would be hard to decide do we walk down the beach and cut through or the boulevard- each one has it's own beauty.
