The stars actually came out on Tuesday night for the first time in 3 days as the remnants of Boris dissipated among the Sierra Madre del Sur. This Wednesday morning the sun shone brightly and the air was crisp and clean. A welcome sensation. It was an absolutely picture postcard perfect day in paradise! The cloudy water along the shore was the only visible remnant of the recent storm. Budding trees and new growth abound all over the hills among what few natural areas remain. Soon they'll be a color we call verde tierno. Fresh green. And the magic begins.

Instead of letting schoolschildren enjoy the Mexico-South Africa fútbol match at school with their friends, our irresponsible state authorities here in Guerrero have canceled classes altogether. Another schoolday lost after already missing school for two days because of Boris, which in itself was an unnecessary reason for missing classes.

A dead whale was reported this Wednesday floating off the coast in front of Troncones. It will provides food for many creatures for days, but the smell along the coast will be a new experience for most people who occupy the residences there.

¡PONTE LA VERDE!
This Thursday, jueves pozolero, at 1PM Mexico's national fútbol team opens the World Cup at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico city with their match against South Africa. It will be televised all over the country in any establishment with a television. Zihuatanejo's municipal government has mounted a gigantic television under a large awning that covers most of the Cancha Municipal in downtown Zihuatanejo for fans to enjoy watching the match together. So if you want to cheer with the locals, come on down to the waterfront. It's certain to be quite an emotional experience.
