As of today Zihuatanejo has registered a cumulative total of 1,594 confirmed cases of Covid-19 (eight more than yesterday), 130 that have resulted in fatalities, 8 that are currently active, and approximately 1,355 that have recovered. With the current influx of tourists this is no time to let our guard up.

Mexico lost one of its most beloved and prolific songwriters today to Covid-19. Armando Manzanares, author of the song in today's music video above.

Got a bit nipper last night, somewhere around 18°C or so. Had me seeking warmth under the bedsheets late until 8AM this morning. I could almost see my breath. Brrrr!

As was mentioned elsewhere, the Gobernador has imposed a curfew on Guerrero's beaches from 7PM till 6AM from tomorrow until Año Nuevo to reduce large gatherings. Apparently bars are no problem. Go figger.

The herradura where drunks hung out has been mostly removed. YAY! Unfortunately all of this part of the walkway is about to be unnecessarily removed and replaced with lots of concrete. Enjoy scenes like these while they last.

Always loved this song. Sorry to hear of yet another sad loss.

Before we moved to Zihua, we often listened to Armando Manzanero's TV program broadcast from Merida in which he interviewed up-and-coming singers and gave them a chance to perform, and oftentimes he sang with them. We were especially thrilled when he sang with Tania Libertad.

We always wished he would invite Jossy Gallegos to sing, but alas, he died too soon! His songs will live on forever.
