Guerrero's health officials currently register 83 active cases of Covid-19 in Zihuatanejo, 13 in La Unión, 2 in Petatlán, 4 in Técpan, 324 in Acapulco, and 1,919 for the entire state. The numbers keep dropping, and lots of people and local businesses continue observing health safety protocols.

This Saturday was certainly a lovely day. Just a hint of rain fell overnight, just enough to dampen the sand on the beaches. Today was a bit warm and humid, like I like it, but if you move too fast you can easily overheat, which is a good excuse to take it slow and easy. Don't forget to hydrate!

Arriving tourists carrying all their luggage and day-at-the-beach gear were on the downtown beach at dawn awaiting the start of water taxi services at the pier to get to Playa Las Gatas. The tourists who arrived by car were looking for their morning coffee. The vagos who sleep on the beach didn't seem to mind being gawked at. ;-)

I keep seeing the very few turtle nests that appear every few days barely above the water line on the downtown beach. As I've mentioned before, I'm pretty sure it's due to the extremely bright lights. It's not normal to see such short tracks as well as tracks that run parallel to the water for long distances, another phenomenon I'm seeing with some frequency that I don't recall ever seeing here before. I've tried to communicate the problem over and over to the so-called responsible authorities but so far nothing but crickets.

Everyone in the local government and many of their relatives are all giddy over the 40 million peso budget the Gobernadora just bestowed on Zihuatanejo this week, sizeable percentages of which are of course already "spoken for" by certain honchos as is the custom. No matter how many times the local community asks for a new hospital, all we seem to get is more painted concrete of dubious necessity. #PobrePueblo
