Zihuatanejo, Mexico

A HOT and humid port ... nice shopping. Didn't do much here but get off the ship and shop a little and sit for a while in a nice church for a word of prayer. Nice place, but humid.

It's a pretty harbor ... ... and a nice view. We had to tender here because they don't have a deep-water pier. There are some condos and resorts on the shore. The pier could use some work. The Zaandam anchors in the harbor, with smaller boats anchored closer in. While shopping I spent half an hour resting and praying in a local church. One of the many bars that line the walk way to and from the pier. As the Zaandam was bringing in its tenders the Holland America Line ship ... ms Oosterdam steamed into harbor to pay it's afternoon visit.
