Un Pequeño Aumento en ViZIHtantes

Mexico's men's fútbol team lost their match for the gold last night, but Mexico comes home from the Central American and Caribbean Games with 407 medals, 167 gold. Unfortunately, Zihuatanejo's David Ocampo didn't win any medals in his javelin-throwing event. But the games were a huge success, and many new young talented athletes made their mark. Santo Domingo was a beautiful venue for the games.

The rain predicted for last night never happened in downtown Zihuatanejo. Tamos sala'o. This is what the period known as La Canícula is notorious for here. Rain is in the forecast for this Sunday afternoon, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

This Saturday morning was ever-so-slightly less warm than Friday morning. The morning's cloud cover didn't last long, and the sun came out a-blazing. Though there was a slight increase in tourism, it seemed everyone was trying to avoid the outdoors except the surfers, who are enjoying some excellent surfing conditions each morning this week, and the surf's predicted to be even better by next weekend.

Fishermen are still bringing in a decent overnight catch. A few pargo here and there, some huachinango, jurel, flamenco, lots of cocinero and palometa, and a few tuna here and there, though tuna seem to be getting scarce recently.

Sorry to report that Roberto Rosas Chino of Roberto's Bistro in Troncones has passed away.

This August 8 is the 147th birthday of one of Mexico's most beloved heroes, Emiliano Zapata. ¡Tierra y Libertad!

More downtown waterfront restaurants were doing business this evening, which is good to see. Not a lot, and only La Porteña was actually busy, but we've only got 3 more weeks of summer vacation to take advantage of, and it hasn't exactly been a booming season.

If you're looking for the perfect family vacation villa or want to share a place with friends, Casa Estrella del Mar may be just what you're looking for. Located on the beach at Playa Troncones, this beautiful 3-story villa features 4 bedrooms with king-size beds, en suite baths, A/C, and balconies, as well as a large pool, covered parking, satellite TV, and wireless internet.
