Families are arriving from the inland towns and cities to take advantage of the long weekend in celebration of Mexico's Día de la Revolución. Monday November 16 is the day of rest even though the parade will be next Friday morning (and which will end up making TWO long weekends).

We were of course awakened by drunken revelers hooting and shouting at 5:30 in the morning through the downtown streets. I should have followed them to their lodging so we could return the favor.:devil:

Everywhere there are families arriving by car and by bus to enjoy a long weekend of fun in the sun. Their smiling faces warm the heart, and the excitement on the faces of their children as they see the beach and the ocean is pure joy.

This is what Zihuatanejo is all about!

Such a wonderful little street--only in Zihuatanejo!
But, Rob, you torture us while waiting to return!
Will be 21 yrs. in a row for me, but I know there are many others who have tallied up more.

29 years in a row!

When my parents first brought me to Zihua, I did not think I would be impressed. It was just Mexico and I had heard lots of bad stuff through the years. 44 years in January and believe me, there is nothing bad enough to ever keep me away. Zihuatanejo is my home and I love it. Other places in Mexico, and I have traveled around quite a bit, just do not quite measure up to the way I feel about Zihuatanejo. And I will be thrilled to be there again. This work stuff.....well it is a good thing I only have to do it for 2 and 1/2 months.
