The bus ride to Lazaro was good, the scenery is fun and it's much more economical and pleasant than driving.

However, we were home well in time for the fabulous sunset!

Tuesday night was a warm one, good for sleeping on top of the sheets for folks who don't like to make their bed.

Storm clouds filled the horizon to our south this Wednesday morning, just off the coast of Zihuatanejo. Slowly but surely they came our way, but surprisingly there was almost no wind, just a brief and steady but not too heavy downpour that left town rinsed clean of dust and fragrantly scented. A beautiful rainbow formed over the bay, and our humble home was at one end of it. Yes indeed, I must be the luckiest Gringo in Mexico.

With the lack of visitors, many of us are in modo Mundial, tuning in daily to what matches we can make time for. Besides the Olympics that combine many disciplines, there's nothing else like the World Cup matches where so many countries get together in peace and respect, except for the USA this time, and enjoy what we call the beautiful sport. And of course we're all excited about Mexico's next match with South Korea this Thursday evening at 7PM local time. Lots of locals will be wearing their patriotic green this Thursday. ¡Ponte la verde!

The beaches looked mostly empty in Zihuatanejo this Wednesday. And there were hardly any visitors along the Paseo del Pescador this evening. Mostly locals watching the match between Ghana and Panamá at the Cancha Municipal. Quite a few familiar faces were there having a good time. It seems like it's always the slow season when we see many of our friends and neighbors the most.

Enjoy jueves pozolero!

Rain is on the way.

Enjoy spectacular views of Zihuatanejo's bay from A View at the Sea, a beautiful and modern 2-bedroom vacation rental condo with a terrace located at the "Casa Que Ve Al Mar" complex. It features a fully equipped kitchen, internet access, cable & satellite TV, 24-hour security, and a pool and sun deck right out the front door. There are still dates available for the holidays.
