The heat spell continues, but the temperature only reached about 35°C this Friday; however, the humidity and all the damn cement makes it feel hotter. Although there's a 60% chance of rain in the forecast for this weekend, it keeps dodging us.

This Friday's cifras alegras claim Ixtapa's hotel occupancy is 73.3% while Zihuatanejo's is 46.7%. Sales remain slow, but the ice-cream parlors are doing a good business.

There's a development being built in Troncones that reminds us how the tourism industry can ruin everything, something I was discussing this morning on a different forum. Such a shame to see this happening in Troncones.

Don't miss the Eco-Tianguis "Sanka" that happens every Saturday from 8:30 a.m. until 1:40 p.m. in the small plaza in front of the Vicente Guerrero school, across the street from the Museo Arqueológico de la Costa Grande in downtown Zihuatanejo by the waterfront where La Boquita canal runs into the bay. Besides wonderful handcrafts, they feature a variety of homegrown produce, fresh foods including pastries, breads and tamales, fresh coffee, juices and mezcal.
