Sitting out on Playa Larga yesterday when a pod of about 8 dolphins slowly went by just on the other side of the breakers. Then they rolled by about a half hour later. This is a magical place.

And we're trying to keep it magical! Tomorrow a hopefully large group of local fishermen are going to encircle and protest the large tuna fishing boats working along our coast where normally our local fishing fleet depends on working the schools of tuna that are normally present at this time of year. Keep them in your thoughts! Power to the PEOPLE!

That's great news! Hope that happens sometime while we're there.

We missed the dolphins, but being in Zihua later than usual, find the weather to be perfect, the crowds to be fewer and the "vibes" to be just right.

A wonderful "new to us" sighting this morning. At least 6 dolphins in the Bay in front of Casa Sandbar. Our range finder showed them to be 400 yards away, but it was a fleeting glimpse. We've seen them playing in the waves at various open beaches but never in the Bay.

This is a great time of year to be in Zihua. It's quiet, most restaurants are still open, and the weather is perfect.
