Health officials for Guerrero confirm 6 currently active cases of Covid-19 in Zihuatanejo, 69 in Acapulco, and 176 in the entire state.

The municipal government released a statement this Saturday declaring that the servicio de los gaseros in Zihuatanejo and Petatlán affected by the latest threats of extortion will be gradually resuming their services as the Guardia Nacional, Marina, Ejército, Policía Estatal y (gasp) Policía Municipal will be implementing security operations to safeguard their installations.

Today was a bit on the warmer side compared to recent weather. Even a difference of 1°C is noticeable. Some of our visitors sure felt it. Especially the crowd that had just arrived by bus that parked themselves for a while in Plaza del Artista this morning, all were still wearing or carrying sweaters and jackets they'd worn during the trip. Don't forget to drink plenty of water!

The waves were up a bit the past couple of days but seemed to have calmed down by this evening. Made for great sleeping music last night!

Some tuna fishermen were rescued today by companions of their own cooperative after being adrift for 12 hours after 2 days fishing at sea, about 65 nautical miles off our coast. Fortunately they had emergency equipment to signal their compañeros with. It's a big ocean out there, and if you drift away, unless you get miraculously lucky and find Clipperton Island, the next stop is French Polynesia.

Even at this early hour most of the overnight catch has already been sold and is on ice somewhere waiting to fill someone's plate.
