Adiós a FlosZIH

Thanks for the warning amigo. My actual “Mexican” friends in Zihuatanejo still want me to come. Unfortunately we will not be back until March, installing a new system at work. As in June, I will be the guy wearing a Dodgers hat walking from La Ropa to Playa Linda, sorry if my hat insults every single Mexican. Also sorry if I am not spending where you will see it. Only thing I am interested in buying besides food, drink and fishing are Tshirts from SPAZ and a hat for when I walk back home. After 2 trips to Taxco, even my wife stopped buying earrings. Lupita does have an excellent shop. We like many have fallen into that nasty internet trap of buying most of our clothes online. We did walk over to Fonda Los Amuzgos for the first time last month, I asked “Tambien para gringos?” and got nothing back except for a laugh and a smile. Food was very good there, a nice place to drop in before shopping at the Soriana. As with any central mercado we have been to for a meal, they were fighting for our business. Tough to beat a good plate of camarones a la diabla at the mercado.

The only problem I ever had in Zihuatanejo was customs and last month they didn’t even open a bag. Also had the best welcoming to Zihuatanejo ever, Ramon’s first son is now working in immigration and stamped our passports letting us in Mexico. Compared to Fresno California I feel very safe in Zihuatanejo even during the combover years. Always good advice to keep a low profile and be respectful when visiting a foreign country, especially for a horrid red hat gringo.
