Puerto Vallarta

This was the best of them all. Nicer city, fun adventure.

We got off the boat, and got on a little speedy boat. We went about 35 mph accross the bay for about 20 minutes, and pulled into a private little cove with some residential houses called Tomatlan. We pulled up right on the shore, and got off.

they put us in a 4x4 unimog that might have seen service in Korea. We packed into the back and went up the hills to a little camp about 2000 feet. The scenery was interesting. We werent in the jungle, but you could see how different it was. It wasnt like California witht he high deserts orevergreens, and notlike the ferns and such up north. vines more than bushes, and cool light green leaves and the air was perfect.

We then mounted mules, and rode up a foot path about 15 minutes. They had to get a bigger mule for me, and he wasnt happy abouot a big yelling red haired ass riding his ass. Then we got off and hiked abouther 10 minutes up a path, and zip lined all the way back.

they dont let you bring cameras, mainly because they want to sell you pictures. but here are some of the other stuff.



We got back soaking wet (We rappelled down a waterfall and then zip lined down a river into a pool). We met a sweet couple that had jsut gotten engaged on the ship, and we took off in a taxi to downtown Puerto Vallarta.

Since we were the old married couple (comparitively speaking) it was even more fun. We got to just simply hang out, and I remember after some daquiris and margaritas carrying on about how to maintain the proper perspective in your small mfg business (he is a budding General Contractor) and then rambling on a bout adoption and the real nature of God and Love. She was a psych major, so I got into some discussion about healing, and then she asked if we were Christians, and then I got lost explaining that while we were, it was all about love and not titles and claims and religion. I hope it helped, but I doubt it.
