Locals and visitors were treated to yet another absolutely picture-postcard-perfect day in Zihuatanejo and along the Costa Grande of Guerrero this Wednesday. While further down the coast the cleanup from Huracán John continues, we continue thanking our lucky stars that we didn't suffer much damage other than mostly some downed trees and a few damaged pangas. But hurricane season isn't over yet, so it's no time to let our guard down.

And because it is still rainy season, there are plenty of mosquitos around. The city hasn't been spraying like they're supposed to do, and dengue is widespread in the community. So use repellent if you plan on sitting outdoors in areas where there are mosquitos. They don't call it the "bone-crushing disease" for nothing.

You'll find the schedule of events for Halloween and Día de Muertos on my Community Notices & Events page.

If you'd like to ride around the bay at 6:30 P.M. during the evening of October 31st in one of the pangas for the Desfile de Lanchas Iluminadas, get your tickets at the ticket window at the pier for $180 per person.

The background color and the extremely fine print make the poster for the Halloween and the Dia del Muertos events impossible for this geezer to read.

Fault of the graphic designer. That's what was made available to the public.

yes in the past I have seen restaurant menus done in similar fashion which though pretty don t really do much on the marketing side of things.

Is there a known reason why the city is not spraying for mosquitoes? Will this be the new norm there? Dengue is very serious and so I’m surprised they stopped doing this.

It's to be expected in a city where the politician in charge is only simulating their duties because their real goal is to pocket as much of the public budget for themselves and still pay a handsome sum to marketing specialists for boosting their image for the next election in 3 years. They don't really care about "we the people". Just like in Florida.

That’s an interesting marketing angle….come visit, get dengue and stay awhile! :-)
Perhaps they think that sounds exotic to some.
I hear ya’ regarding Florida……

Okay, just for you, I found and uploaded a larger version of the poster on my Community Notices & Events page. I hope this works for you. Un saludo.
