Las Gatas

There is a fascinating spot in Zihuatanejo Bay. Just as you enter the harbor on the right a point shelters the Las Gatas beach and hosts the bungalows of Owen Lee, a former diver (with Jacques Cousteau) and a long-time resident of Mexico. He lives in an open-air palapa, this shower and bath just off the bedroom.



Owen is also a mutual friend of Scott Robinson, a professor in Mexico City, whom we had hoped to meet while in Zihuatanejo. Unfortunately, his teaching schedule forbade him from making the trip.





So, instead, we met more of Owen's friends: Memo, who is more commonly seen at Rick's Place in town, and who makes a mean guacamole.



Sarah Miller, in Zihuatanejo in preparation for her first sailing adventures, entertained us with her strong, sweet voice and skilled guitar.
