Hotel Olas Altas Inn Puerto Vallarta

... this. <br> It was also great when we went for a swim at the beach (still hearing those same songs blearing from the clubs) in the middle of the night and watched in amazement at the slight glow the phosphlurecent plankton (or something like that) would let off when we moved our hands around a feet or so under the water. <br> This night was just what I needed and kick started the party aspect of backpacking that I had been missing while living with a host ...

... our goal is now to reduce the weight on the Buell, as I, being the more experienced rider (at the start of the trip Sylvain had about 0 long trip riding experience) and I therefore took most of the heavy objects on my bike. We are going to have to re-adjust the situation now and we will have to be hunting for some high quality 5/16 bolts. I know I have some cousins with hardware stores....hmmmmm....hint hint.....

... Like anything on vacation you could never recreate these sandwiches, they were great. Of course eating them while sitting by the pool and looking out at the Bay of Banderas helped to improve the flavor I suppose. We had made arrangements with a boat that takes people to Los Arcos to do some snorkeling at noon. We packed up allof our snorkel stuff and headed to the beach...and waited...and waited...and ...

... Revolucion Shopping Mall. We bought leather belts and Oaxacan(pronounced "wa-ha-can")wood sculptures. We had lunch at a small cafe and headed back. It only took twenty (20)minutes to get into Mexico. Then it took ninety (90) minutes to get back through customs, into the good old US.!!! Saturday we decided to hang around the RV Park and Marina Park area. We enjoyed the afternoon and the sun going down over the park with Chrissy !!! Our last ...

... popcorn, which was nice, except i nearly choked on it! You know what? We like San Diego!!! Day 5 After our free pancake breakfast in the Hostel, we decided today was Beach Day! We needed a nice day on the beach, getting a tan. Had heard it was quite a long way to the beach so got a bus/tram ticket. It was a long way, no way we could have walked, mad as we clearly are! Found a beach, looked as good as any! Picked our spot on Mission Beach, and got to ...

... as far and beyond where the eye could see! Lines of cars and busses stretching over 200+ long! I don't think I can adequately describe the horror of this sight. . . We walked up to the patrol, seeking asylum as US citizens, but he quickly returned us to the line. At our wits end, we somehow managed to sneak our way onto a bus for $5, where we comfortably rode out the remaining 300 ft. to the border over the next 2 hours in comfort... phew.

... to do with all the prescription drugs you can get over the border on the cheap, obviously I didn't partake in that. We had been warned about the hassle that 4 lily white girls might get from the shop owners as we walked through the streets but it really wasn't as bad as we had been told. We were quite polite in the way we declined paying $80 for a bracelet that we were then offered for $5. There were lots of shops but they all sold the same kinds of ...

... of our neighbour's tent so close to ours. Their tent was so close that Nadine and I both accidentally tried to go into their tent later that day. We read about a place on Hana bay that served good breakfast called Tutu's and decided to head out there for breakfast this morning. Great decision on our part! Two cups of coffee ...
