Paparazzi abounded and everyone was photographed and fussed over in true Hollywood Style. Catering was provided by El Mediterraneo restaurant and all the guests had a blast. FYI: Z-Niece Katie Brownstein of Encino, Ca. hitting the Scene at La Perla Restaurant on Playa La Ropa along with several friends who were on break from the University of Santa Barbara. Also playcationing and tripping the night fantasic at Casa Bahia were Z Best Friends Sandy and Jay Mesinger from Boulder, Colo.
IT TAKES A VILLAGE
This past month’s multi-Beach Clean Up was a huge success as there were so many caring and concerned people participating in keeping this part of Paradise beautiful. On La Madera alone, they cleaned the beach then took to the streets. Besides having a number of local La Madera residences and business owners out there, a number of tourists also took time away from playcationing to pitch in and help. Dee Dee Nelson took on the chore of handing out bags on her last morning in Z and in getting a number of others staying at the Hotel Irma to buy SOS Bahia T-shirts and to go out and collect trash, kudos also to Mark Kuglitsch for cleaning up a huge area, Tony Hodge who donated much needed bags, owners of M.J. & Richies and La Casa Cafe for being the starting points, Mary Rushing for doing such a large part, and especially to Jim Dellecker and everyone who participated in all areas.
HAPPY HAPPIES
The Extraordinary One Judith Whitehead proprietress of Paradise Properties hosted a surprise birthday lunch for Cindee Leo at Shari & Scott Crawford’s Hotel Las Palmas in Playa Blanca with scrumptious food and even a clown to spread the cheer with music and magic and huge shoes, guests included hubby Dan, Lois Brown, Yourz truly and Grace Relfe, who also had a birthday of her own. Grace’s glorious birthday evening was held at Amuleto high above La Ropa surrounded by friends, where a special menu was prepared by Ricardo Rodriguez of Kau Kan. Whitney Cassidy-Hadley & husband Michael returned to Z for her annual birthday extravaganza, complete with her traditional birthday breakfast with mariachis and pancake birthday cake, Ms. Whitehead hosted the birthday dinner at Coconuts, Patty & Tim Green aka los verdes, and AJ & Isabel were among those in attendance.

Think putting a magazine together every month is like conducting an orchestra ?? Well the man responsible for putting this magazine together every month is our multi-talented printer, Fotopress’s Bill Alexander, who is also a conductor with the Filarmonica de Acapulco, shown here conducting the orchestra at a recent performance in Acapulco.
