Uff! Wednesday night was another warm one. It only got down to about 26°C, but with the humidity and lack of breeze it felt warmer. A difficult night for a lot of people of scarce resources. It's hard for folks who visit and reside here now, especially newcomers, to imagine how we ever survived here without A/C or electricity. Like a lot of people from back in Zihuatanejo's more primitive days, I slept in a hammock and rocked myself with a rope tied above the hammock to keep cool if there wan't a breeze. Mosquitos were the only discomfort sometimes, but mosquito coils usually did the trick and kept them away. Plus we mopped our floors frequently with kerosene as did most homes to keep bugs away.

Since there aren't hardly any visitors here in Zihuatanejo, downtown seems especially quiet. The calm before the storm?

And a storm certainly looks to be brewing with rain expected any minute. It's expected to rain off and on tonight as well as much of tomorrow and the weekend. Keep your wet-weather sandals handy.

Congratulations to Canada for their win today over Qatar! Wow!

Okay, we've got a fútbol match to watch. ¡Vamos México! ¡PONTE LA VERDE!

If you enjoy spectacular views and balmy breezes, you'll LOVE La Casa Roja on Cerro El Almacén with two comfortable suites. The upstairs has 2 bedrooms with a king-size and twin beds, full kitchen, private bath, and 2 terraces. The lower level also has 2 bedrooms with a king-size and twin beds, full kitchen, 2 baths, and a terrace. A peaceful place within easy walking distance of downtown and nearby restaurants.
