We love Puerto Vallarta. We've been there many times, by cruise ship for just a day, or a week in a timeshare . This time we were there for two weeks.
We had the first week to ourselves in our Grand Mayan condo in Nuevo Vallarta, a few miles north of the main town of Puerto Vallarta. We were joined the second week by two friends from Dana Point, Lee and Terry Walsh.
We went to lots of places, saw lots of things and we'd like to share some of them with you right now.
