Zihuatanejo has registered a cumulative total of 1,037 confirmed Covid-19 cases, 72 of which have resulted in fatalities, 854 that have recovered, and 85 of which are currently active. There has been a decline of 42 cases between consecutive weeks.

It's almost getting to be a rare sight to see someone without a facemask.

Hurricane Genevieve is churning away off our coast heading away from us, sending us some waves and clouds but so far very little rain and just the sweetest tropical breeze, at least here in our lovely sheltered bay. Today was an easy day to be lazy just to enjoy the perfect weather. Zihuatanejo Bay was closed to navigation but should be open tomorrow.

We continue to see a smattering of tourists, mostly groups of families, not quite sure where to go or what to do other than go to the beach and try different restaurants. But most are at least wearing facemasks. A good sign.

Gracias, Susan. Pedrito, as he is affectionately known, was one of Mexico's most beloved child stars who played some difficult roles in many incredible movies establishing himself as an actor and entertainer, who grew up into one of Mexico's most beloved singers. This rendition of a song first performed by Pedro Infante in the classic movie "A Toda Máquina" brought the song back to life in a style that would've made Pedro Infante proud.
