Con Las Olas EnZIHma

Only 30 currently active cases of Covid-19 are reported today, but an unvaccinated elderly man in his 80's arrived and passed away at the Hospital General while another man in his 40's remains in the special Covid-19 section.

I seriously regret reporting that the *wink wink* REMODELACIÓN del Paseo de Pescador *wink wink* has thoroughly ruined and uglified the walkway from Porto di Mare to the pier. There's now a FUGLY WALL in front of the Sector Naval blocking the view of this iconic and quaint setting. As far as I know from media reports, the arquitecto who signed his name to the design of this farce is Enrique Zozaya. If true, this'll be a reason I won't be able to recommend his services. The new walkway will be much warmer than the old one thanks to the removal of so many lovely old shade trees and the addition of so much more cement including walls and buildings that block the breeze. The mayor owns a cement company in case anyone has any doubts what this unsolicited unnecessary project is really all about. A damn shame the millions spent on this weren't used to improve our local hospital or to build a new one, something we have urgently needed for around 2 decades now. I truly wish I did not have to warn you all about what you will find here if you haven't already seen it. This has been an extremely disappointing "project" from its inception, and only the walkway to La Madera is somewhat justifiable though almost none of the plants they placed there as part of its remodelación have survived. The Cancha now has a huge cartoon of a crocodile dressed as a basketball player painted on its surface. Something best described as NACO in Spanish. Disneylandified!

Man, I don't know how we stand all this perfect weather. It was perfect for sleeping last night even though it barely sprinkled. The waves picked up as we came under the effects of a mar de fondo event, and they sure made for nice sounds to sleep by.

Check out the lovely accommodations available in the region for finding nirvana and true relaxation. We have an abundance of truly lovely lodgings for you to choose from. Here are some of my personal recommendations.

The mar de fondo continues rearranging the sand and new palm trees on our downtown beach. One of the palm trees here has sunk to a completely new level, and a few others look like they may soon be joining it. I and others tried to warn the city not to plant anything there, but did they listen to anyone?
