Remembering Puerto Vallarta

As I do my physical therapy, I chat with my torture director.  She mentioned that she goes down to Puerto Vallarta, annually - seems her parents live down there.  So it was a happy workout session reminiscing of a wonderful holiday with Dutchman down there in 2008!

We talked about the village her parents live in, which was perhaps a mile from the resort I stayed at.  Same village Dutchman was having his new place built - which still is not completed!  Since the real estate market has lost 90% of value down there, I doubt he is real excited about sinking more money into that project!  And yet, it would not surprise me to learn he is about to move down there.  I would not complain if he wanted a neighbor either!  But, I would balk at having a $10,000,000 place!  Something far cheaper, something normal people can relate to.  I like being invisible.

We shared memories of the town, the sites, the smells, the food.  :)  It kept the other torture victims in stitches laughing over some of the stories.

I think that 2016 is going to be a trip somewhere fun.  A vacation, new sights, smells, sounds and of course interesting food! Even a return to Puerto Vallarta would be welcome ...
