:futbol: Wednesday night was one of great celebration all across Mexico and wherever there were Mexicans after the Selección Nacional beat Czechia 3-0, making history by remaining unbeaten during the first round of World Cup matches. There were folks all over Zihuatanejo celebrating and chanting in the streets and plazas. Around 800,000 aficionados turned out to celebrate on Mexico City's Avenida Reforma at the Ángel de la Independencia. A deluge around the monument during the second half of the game didn't deter any of the fans who splashed each other and cheered in the flooded streets. ¡VIVA MÉXICO!

Of course, Mexicans are also greatly concerned for our brothers and sisters in Venezuela who suffered the two devastating earthquakes one after the other. Such a beautiful country full of so much suffering today. Mexico's earthquake rescue team known as "Topos" will be helping to try to rescue people and pets from the rubble of collapsed buildings.

Thursday started off cloudy and refreshing, but the rain stayed away. The mar de fondo seems to have calmed down a bit. Waves are expected to remain around 2 meters for the next 3 days or so before settling down to around a meter by July 1st. The chance of rain increased from 40% to 70% over the next 3 days, but there were already a few visitors showing up this afternoon.

The pier is a total disaster area, still without lights. The fishing cooperative's tejebán that shaded their offices has been removed, and people must walk in mud and rubble to reach the pier now. Lots of our neighbors are saying the same thing as I am: that the mayor has no shame, and that this particular project is a direct insult to the community, including the fishermen, neighbors and our visitors who use the pier. Zihuatanejo would be a much prettier and more popular place with moneyed visitors if it weren't for its politicians. ;-)

AND, two rainbows yesterday evening. From the pier it looked like one coming out of Dario Galeana, the other from Aura del Mar.
