Puerto Vallarta Day 3


Day 3
We started the day with breakfast and decided that we go into town and get our shopping out of the way. We started early so we would have plenty of time. There is what is called a boardwalk along the water and across the street shops and restaurants. Here is a picture of sand art along the water (the boardwalk). There are tons of these. It's pretty awesome to see these huge pieces of art made of sand.Here is a picture of what the street kind of looks like.

This is our view from the restaurant we ate lunch at.
After lunch we shopped a little more and as soon as we couldn't carry anymore we hailed a cab and headed back to the hotel for some more relaxing time.

As we layed out by the pool and relaxed we saw this man carrying around this huge Iguana. He would let you take pictures with it for 70 pesos which is 7 dollars US money. It's a lot but something that is out of the ordinary so we got several pictures of Tammy with the monster. Brave girl! The man kept trying to get me to take one but I didn't think so...a girl can only step out of her comfort zone so many times.

After relaxing by the pool we asked our drink waiter where was a good place to go and have some Mexican food. After all we were in Mexico and Tammy really wanted some real Mexican food. You would be surprised how different the menu is over there. Mostly seafood dishes. So, he suggested "PiPi's". It was a cool little place and excellent food. The picture below is what it looks like from the street. We decided to have Margarita's...after all we were in Mexico...So we ordered our Margarita's and this is what we got....Can you say " a bowl of Margarita"...this is the only size. And yes there was plenty of Tequila!

There was a sign on the wall that said....
"Don't Drink The Water...Drink The Margarita"

After a wonderful meal we headed back to the hotel and called it a night.
