Puerto Vallarta





By far, our favorite day of our trip was the day we went to Puerto Vallarta. It was thanksgiving day, but didn't feel much like Thanksgiving. Puerto Vallarta is tropical jungle. It is beautiful. We had signed up for an on shore excursion through the cruise but it ended up being full so we couldn't get on. Dave and I went on shore and found someone offering the same small trip for quite a bit cheaper so we signed up through them. It was great. We took a 1 hour catamaran ride to a place called Las Caletas -- a private beach in the middle of the jungle, accessible only by boat. At the beach we had free beer (not a big deal for us, but a big advertising point), food, sea kayaks, and other beach toys. We had a great day.


Dave held a monkey.


We wanted clare to put the bird on her head but she didn't go for it, so this was as close as we could get.







This is Clare and Dave on the boat ride home .. .it cracks me up how crazy Clare looks. She is such a mess and is super tired after a full day at the beach!

You're just trying to make us jealous, aren't you now?! It snowed here today.

Of course I love the snow, so I don't mind. Looks like you had a great trip.
