Puerto Vallarta trip w/ muchos fotos!

Several friends and I ventured to Puerto Vallarta to celebrate two or our birthdays (there was a zero in it-that's all I'm sayin') and the following photos show the area where we stayed and played for the week...Old Town AKA Zona Romantica.

Flying in:


Building in the hotel zone


We waffled about whether to stay in an oceanfront condo (cheap!) or a villa up in the hills. We opted for the hike up the hill and didn't once regret the choice:
The view


The 5,000sf home had 4 brs, 5 full and 2 1/2 baths, its own pool, a cook and maid and more terraces and garden areas than we could use (all for under $800!!!)









Media Room




Master bath

View from the kitchen


View from the master bedroom


That's 'our' terra cotta colored house in the middle of the hill


I apologize in advance for the fuzziness of some of the pictures but we were, after all, in the area that produces tequila.


































The Church of Guadalupe (1951)

















The Malecon is a boardwalk that extends 11 blocks along the beach and features several sculptures.








Sand sculpture





Along the beach, Playa de Los Muertos!





palapas



















We were also able to get in a canopy tour which I highly recommend.

Sorry, no photos...its hard to work a camera when you have a white-knuckle death grip on the cable pulley handles!
