I think yesterday evening was the coolest August evening we ever experienced [for august].

That feeling when you notice it's 25 degrees outside and your AC is set to 27.

The port of Zihuatanejo has been closed for 2 days due to the proximity and effects of the now Tormenta Tropical Hilary. This Wednesday we received hurricane-strength wind gusts that transplanted much of the sand from Playa Principal onto the downtown streets. Lost one of our plants and had to close our home up tight to keep the sand and dust out. I hope no one suffered any damage to their homes or trees, though I've seen reports that plenty of trees have been downed or suffered broken branches all up and down the Costa Grande, and I know several colonias had their power go out here in Zihuatanejo. It's not over yet, and we've got another storm forming up right behind this one. Stay alert and keep an eye on our local weather.

I expect with this storm tourism will slow down quite a bit. In Zihuatanejo things are noticeably slow, especially with the port closed to boat traffic. Hotel occupancy is reportedly around only 30% in the so-called Pueblo Mágico of Zihuatanejo, yet Ixtapa is reporting an increase in their tariffs because of the new promotion gimmick. Typical.

A truly magical place to enjoy your vacation in Zihuatanejo is Casa Mi Corazón. A luxurious 3-bedroom 3-story vacation rental home located atop the small hill at La Madera just steps from the beach with a panoramic view of downtown Zihuatanejo and the bay. Within easy walking distance to downtown restaurants and shopping. Amenities include a rooftop palapa living and dining area with a pool, air-conditioned bedrooms, and wireless internet.

Una panga con pescadores viene recio para orillarse en Playa Principal con los frutos de su trabajo nocturno.
