Fiestas

I don't do Fiestas.

I learned some time ago that the Mexican Buffet looks great. Pretty much all tastes good. I eat too much and invariably get sick. I have, however learned how to sneak down at our condo on fiesta night and enjoy the show.

Mountain Jungle

Puerta Vallarta lies along the Bay of Bonderas, the second largest bay in the world, and along the jungle mountains of the western Sierra Madres. Yesterday we visited a large Botanical Gardens and today walked up a great distance to a small private gardens with a great little restaurant by a river. Many Many birds. Nice people along the way.

I was surprised when this fellow removed his visor and off came the hair with it. Very bald.

Have to find one of these for Ralph.

On nice days like today, when the cruise ships are in, young men in native costume climb a pole and fly down.

Puerto Vallarta Sculpture

Mexicans love their sculpture. Some make sense. Some do not. They push your imagination.

Day in the rain

Some sand sculptures are kept under repair. Some sucumb to the rain.

The streets are wet and the children under their umbrellas.
