For a couple of hours each evening between 5 and 7 p.m. it sounds like a war zone in downtown Zihuatanejo with flying bombs scaring the bejeezus out of babies, cats, dogs and people not amused by huge explosions (hearing enough gunfire and grenades will do that to you). Only 8 more days of this, then during the holiday vacations come all the random fireworks folks bring with them from inland to fire off. Counting the days till it's over...

Whales are already showing up along our coast. There was a report of one possibly trapped in fish netting dead on the beach at Playa Larga, but I've seen no followup. More and more of our fishing boats are now being used for whale watching. Captains and guides take courses to get certified to try to help preserve the species and still show visitors a good time. And excellent charter service for whale watching is Zihuatanejo Ixtapa Charters. They offer a nice variety of well-maintained vessels, some quite luxurious, for almost any kind of adventure at sea.
