LOVELY SCULPTURE ON ESPLANADE
VILLA AZUL
17.5.11 VILLA AZUL AND PUERTO VALLARTA
Sitting here writing this at 11.00pm in the evening with the perfect warm temperature, a cool light breeze , looking at the lights of PV I feel pretty lucky. There is not a noise , Stunning.
Today after a great sleep felt like a new person! We head off down town for breakfast and wander
We start at the Cathedral of the old town and walk along the esplanade looking at the ocean, people jogging and vendors getting ready for the day.
We find a little place for breakfast right on the beach and after head for you guessed it the shops!!
Find a good silver shop with great things but finding the prices here are double of Playa del Carmen which is interesting!
Have to bargain hard and even then they wont budge and we walk out of many shops!!
Wanted to get the little Mexican outfits for the girls which I saw in Playa and here I cant find them or the dolls I didn’t buy there too!
My old saying is if you see it get it as you wont see it again!! Should listen to my own advise!!
Kerrie decides to go home as she is done with her shopping and I am still on a search!!!
After much searching at last I find the outfits!!
I then to decide to hit the beach as Im thirsty and it must be margarita time!!
Find a little restaurant on the sand, just like in Greece .I get the drink while vendors come and and try and sell to me!
I purchase a delicious mango on a stick which was yummy! See the photo as the colour of the fruit watermelon, cucumber, papaya, mangos looks fabulous!
I am watching a man fishing and he is about 2 metres of the edge of the sand and he is up to his shoulders in the water!
Now know why the waves were crashing so loudly! It goes down so deeply so quickly and reminded me of Lagos as it did the same thing there!
Huge seagulls dive bomb down to catch fish and I love watching this.
After sometime of just soaking up the atmosphere I head off to get my nails done!! Then decided to have a massage as it all so cheap here so nails and massage!!
By this time it is nearly 5.30p.m. and luckily I said to Kerrie I would be home by 6.00p.m as she could be worried that I have got lost!!!!
I arrived home and Kerrie was pleased to see me and said she wasn’t going to panic till after 6.00p.m!!!
Our taxi driver Micki is going to pick us up to take us back downtown to restaurant on the beach called La Palapa.
First just a final touch of shopping as I had found some things Kerrie wanted!!
Dinner was lovely having our last Margarita as Beverley Hills tomorrow and it will be grey goose martinis!!!
Watching the sun go down sitting on the beach on a perfect evening we reflected on our wonderful time we have had together.
After a perfect evening we head back to the villa and I sit and do this!!
One thing I am looking forward to is being able to put the toilet paper in the loo!!!! I have to admit I do sometimes forget!! This is also the same in Greece!!
I might add that the loos here are spotlessly clean everywhere you go.
I think I may have mentioned that the apartment is for sale at 2.5 million there are 3 apartments including ours with 2 more below!!
Boy the stairs to get to the other 2 are really steep!! Grateful that we are the top apartment!
From entertainment level to street level and our bedrooms it is 30 steps so when you forget something up you go!!! But great exercise!!!
Adiose Mexico!!! A fabulous place and friendly charming people!! Would love to come here again!!!!

Micki picks us up and takes us back to La Palapa for final breakfast before heading off!
Here you can have a table on the waters edge with towels provided an Italian sun lounge with tilting head which I love!! Just sit there and have breakfast lunch and dinner if you so desire!!! Nice way to spend a day!!!!!!
