How we all go on bragging about sunny Mexico. My standard phrase to my friends back home is “86 and sunny every day”. Evening sail boat cruises and roof top parties have been in the planning for weeks as we get excited about this fantastic full, blue moon event and with an eclipse no less. And here we are in prime viewing area. So what does Mother Nature do? She decides to mess with us a bit and sends Zihuatanejo clouds! Heavy thick clouds all day long, even the temperature was low, probably never got above 80 all day. Well maybe it will clear up a bit at night. Well, no that didn’t happen either
But somehow it didn’t dampen the party spirit and as we set out for the particular rooftop we were headed for as one of our group remarked “maybe I should have brought something to cover my shoulders later”. Almost unheard of needing any sort of a wrap at night. The food that folks brought was delicious and abundant, the company was jovial and the view of the bay and the town was extraordinary. But only the briefest glimpse of the fickle moon through a tiny parting of clouds. Quite the sense of humor Mom Nature, not funny. Signing off KO
