The Anatomy of a Hamburger


Zihuatenejo has the best hamburgers in the world we have decided. Our favourite stand is directly across from the basketball courts.
The burger consists of bimbo bread buns, grilled, hamburger patty, ham, string cheese melted on the ham, avocado slices, chopped tomatoes, pickled jalapeno peppers, mustard, ketchup, mayonaise... outstanding.
Today is kayaking at Las Gatas. Anders leaves for Vegas at noon so we are kayaking early.
Randy and Luis Bandito are working on the fridge and air intake lines as they are still full of trash from Acapulco. The generator line had celophane from a cigarette package and half of a toothbrush!
This afternoon we search for water filters and a Mexican flag likely stopping at Tamale Annies for pozole and, you guessed it, tamales.
Sunset Bar is closed. Some employees and the manager tried to sue the owner so she returned to Victoria/Vancouver. Ric's (Memo's) is closed until November when the cruisers return
The owners of Blythe Spirit left her here for the hurricane season and their deflated dinghy with engine are stranded on the playa principal. Other than that there are two other sailboats here; one in Playa Principal with us and the other at La Ropa.
Zihua is inundated with locals at this time of year... much busier than the winter. The only other gringos here are those that have chosen Zihua as their permanent residence.
