That music you were just listening to is [caption id="attachment_2017" align="alignright" width="300"] Vista Grill on The Beach Romantic Dinner[/caption] performed by Alberto Perez, the owner of the La Palapa Group of Restaurants. Those are La Palapa, The El Dorado Restaurant, and at night for dinner The El Dorado transforms into the ever so romantic Vista Grill with those dramatic views of the Los Muertos Pier all lit up at night in beautiful colors. Of course, at La Palapa you can enjoy that same view of the Los Muertos Pier all day long for breakfast, lunch or dinner, seated with your toes in the sand right at the water’s edge. It’s so romantic, it’s so Puerto Vallarta my friends! This week I have a couple of adventurers who sailed their sailboat from Seattle Washington to Puerto Vallarta, and are now living in Marina Vallarta, but first, let’s see what’s happening this week in Puerto Vallarta, the 9th of May, 2018.   Subscribe On iTunes & Leave a Good Review Subscribe on Android With Spreaker Down Vallarta BMX Bike Race This podcast is coming to you from Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where I am sitting in an Airbnb that is way up the mountainside, right above downtown Vallarta. The views from this condo are amazing, but you have to be part Mountain goat if you want to stay here. Luckily, I’m one of those goats, wait, that doesn’t sound right. Okay let me rephrase that. Never mind, you get it. I don’t mind stairs too much but there are 51 steps, straight up to the condo. It’s on a street called Arroyo Del Pedregoso, it’s a street that’s too narrow for a taxi to make it up more than 100 feet up it. Then I walk up the street, which at night can be a little spooky, but the neighborhood is   actually very nice, and it’s right below the cross, that famous cross on the mount above Vallarta. And yes, the Down Vallarta BMX Bike Race, [caption id="attachment_3080" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Rooftop Sunset in Puerto Vallarta From the Airbnb[/caption] [caption id="attachment_3079" align="alignright" width="225"] Arroyo del Pedregoso[/caption] [caption id="attachment_3071" align="alignright" width="225"] 51 Steps Up To The Airbnb[/caption] exhibition is going to go right past the condo, and I’m going to film the goings on so I will bring you that to you next week, and have them in the blogpost and in the show notes for this show. I will have pictures of the Airbnb in the show notes for this episode of the show, Pics from the rooftop of the condo, and of that hike I take up and down those steps from the street, up to my condo. Have a look and tell me that you wouldn’t have a time hauling your luggage up them. Kinda makes you think twice about that, honey I’m just going to run down to the corner tienda for beer and ice. Then, next week my lovely wife will come into town and join me for a whole 4 days to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary a little early and I’m definitely going to find a different place, so I don’t get blamed for wrecking her knees, wearing her out, being cheap, like $32 a night cheap, and I’m pretty sure she would be a little creeped out walking up that narrow alley late at night, so I’ll let you guys know where I land. I’ll take pics of course and give you a full review of the place
