Puerto Vallarta

Well, we have been in Puerto Vallarta now for 5 days. To be honest we were a little leery about coming, but Mom and Dad Doyle wanted to come to check on their condo and we thought it would be a good idea to come along. We have been pleasantly surprised about how much we have enjoyed our time here. I don't think I have seen Norm relax so quickly on a vacation! We have enjoyed the beauty, people and slower pace. Our trip to help out Norm's parents has turned into a nice little vacation for us.

We are staying across the hall from their condo in one of their neighbor's condo who graciously offered his place to stay for free - how could we refuse? It is in the historic downtown area with cobblestone streets, lots of restaurants and shops, and the beach only a few blocks away.

Here are few pictures of our condo and the area immediately surrounding us.

Our "outdoor" living room. See the washing machine at the back left?
The dryer is some clotheslines up on the roof


Bedroom


Tiny Bathroom - notice our own little water heater to the right!


View out our living room window towards the beach


Sidewalk by the condo


Found these great stairs behind the condo
while we were out for our morning walk one day


Sand sculptures that we pass on our morning walks


We went on a drive and ended up at these waterfalls where we had lunch and watched the cliff divers. You can see one of them in middle of this picture. He was pretty good!


Us having fun at lunch at the waterfalls.
