Thank you, sir. Yes, drop a line thru the board or to olyzihua@gmail.com. We'll meet up and send a couple selfies to our wives.
There is a newer version of the video that has the Spanish subtitles, I'll embed that for anyone interested sometime soon. Yes, Rob' s stunning photography brings it all alive.

Sure, Diane, what a help you were! A year ago I asked Mr. Whitehead if I might use his fine images to help celebrate this grand place we all love so.
Someone with the Zihuataejo Recuerdo Facebook page also made a video of their own using the song which was quite nice. A reader there asked for translation, and that's where we are.

I find myself in Huatulco for a few days, though I'm not quite sure how or why. I'd write a song here, but so little rhymes with Huatulco.

I'm returning to Zihua to stay until the end of February; sorry I missed you, as fans are few!

Will probably need Robs's help with it, but I'll do a repost of "Zihua Bay" sometime soon.

Some years ago you used some of my photos for your song. I checked it out on YouTube yesterday. Beautiful update with new pix. I have this on our iTunes and listen to it often. I think you you should definitely post it. We just returned from a two week visit to Zi. The best place in all of MX.

It's The Sun Thanks, friends. (reply)

"Through many weeks-long visits it remains true for me that spending time alone strengthens and sharpens perspective, relationship and spirit. Still lazy, not so crazy."

Very well said and I agree 100%! Cool tunes, thanks for sharing.

Thanks. My wife loves Zihua as well, but in smaller doses. Through many weeks-long visits it remains true for me that spending time alone strengthens and sharpens perspective, relationship and spirit. Still lazy, not so crazy.

Great song -very sweet.
Tugs at my heart a bit as I'll be coming down to Z solo for the first time in a couple of weeks.
I'll email the YouTube link to my wife so she can hear it while I'm there.

Just found my way back yesterday to be greeted by about the best day I can recall anywhere anytime. Allow me to share a little musical tribute from the album I "selfied" a few years back. The cutie who does the intro is my grandniece; I'll be sure to embarrass her with this someday. Enjoy.

...and though I studied hard the instructions to embed, I came up unsuccessful. Will keep trying. Any coaching appreciated.
