Puerto Vallarta, Mexico: November 2013








Another lovely Thanksgiving with my family in Puerto Vallarta.  Twelve of us met up to celebrate the holiday together.  On Thanksgiving day we had dinner at a restaurant on the beach.

The Malecon (the boardwalk) in downtown Puerto Vallarta that stretches for a mile along the ocean.  Pictured here are Los Arcos (the arches), the 9 foot statue of a youth riding a seahorse (the symbol of Puerto Vallarta), other sculptures along the water’s edge, and some cops on segways.

The main church in little village of Bucerias located north of Puerto Vallarta.  There are also many shopping stalls where you can buy ceramics, bags, belts, jewelry, games and lots of other hand crafted items.

In downtown Puerto Vallarta is the Mercado Municipal (the city market) with blocks and blocks of stalls and shopping.

Amazing place with lots of stunning sunsets.  It’s always hard to leave after visiting here.
