Otro Día ZIHn Lluvia

https://youtu.be/aNFbNmPPub4

Sunday morning started off warm. The rain that had been predicted never arrived, and the day only got hotter, a situation not helped by all the cement poured mostly in the past 7 years that raises the ambient temperature quite noticeably. This evening while walking along the downtown waterfront my wife and I couldn't help but notice the breeze was relatively refreshing on the sandy part of the beach, but just a few meters away the heat rising from the cement totally annulled it. A damn shame that our local government has done this to our beautiful town by putting their economic interests first (the current mayor's spouse, who was the previous mayor for 6 years owns a cement company).

It's also a damn shame that a person was shot and killed on the La Ropa road near the monument to corruption known as the Partenón. As we say locally, our police shine brightly for their absence, though they always accompany the mayor. A situation that unfortunately seems to only get worse with each successive municipal administration.

Lots of visitors were here today. Mostly families. Beautiful scenes everywhere of families smiling and having fun, proud parents playing with their children, many families represented by 3 or more generations. And on Zihuatanejo's downtown beach they are permitted to enjoy themselves like at no other beach, dancing to music, enjoying family picnics, some with their furry family members, enjoying themselves the way it used to be on all our beaches before the stupid Blue Flag was imposed on the community against our will. Hopefully when a new mayor is elected in a couple years we'll be able to ditch the stupid Blue Flag and remove a lot of the excessive cement that's been unnecessarily poured, especially along the beachfront and in former green areas including Plaza Kioto and Plaza del Artista. We want trees and shade, not painted cement!

Tucked away in a lovely gardened property less than a block from the beach at Playa La Ropa is another one of our hidden jewels with a French flair named Casa Iguana. Six luxurious bungalow suites with A/C, cable TV, Internet connection, kitchenettes, and garden terraces with living and dining areas. An absolutely perfect place for relaxing and losing track of time.
