Guerrero's health officials confirm 9 currently active cases of Covid-19 in Zihuatanejo, 1 in Benito Juárez, 56 in Acapulco, and 187 in the entire state.

A few tourists showed up this Friday. Hopefully we'll get enough to get through the slow season without having to tighten our belts too much. Unfortunately I continue seeing too many comments on the social media about the beach restrictions causing too many people to go elsewhere than Zihuatanejo and Ixtapa. Bummer the city government is too intransigent to see the error of their way, but they don't live from tourism. Same as with the light and noise pollution, same as with public insecurity that affects locals with businesses. But hey, we have lots of new painted concrete!

Man oh man what delicious weather we're having. It got cloudy late this afternoon and a nice refreshing breeze came out of the west. Enjoy this mild weather while it lasts. We sure are! In the next couple of weeks expect the winds to die down a lot and to come more out of the south with some hot humid air. And hope we get a nice light rain to start the rainy season off with.

There've been a couple of characters holding up shops and businesses downtown recently, so keep a sharp eye out. There's also been some counterfeit 200-peso bills spotted here and in other communities along the coast.

Don't forget to go to the Eco-Tianguis "Sanka" Saturday mornings at the small plaza across the street from the Museo Arqueológico de la Costa Grande in front of the Vicente Guerrero school. Great food, coffee, mezcal and other goodies along with some local crafts. There's also usually some inrteresting presentations and good music to enjoy. Between 9AM & 1:30PM.
