Perfect Timing!

Sounds like I picked the perfect weekend to leave New Albany. Although I would have liked to see the snow, I like snow that only lasts a day or two.

Puerto Vallarta was very nice and exactly what Rosie and I wanted .....beach, book, booze. The temp was about 80 every day and a good breeze. The mornings were chilly until about 11. The hotel was very nice. I wasn't thrilled with the beach. You walk out from the resort and the sand hurt to walk on, then there would be a drop off and more beach. Where the ocean washed up it was easier to walk but up towards the drop-off it wasn't. Then between each resort they had built out these extensions with large rocks that went from the drop off to a little way in to the ocean. They were usually grass covered, and this is where they set up massage tables inside tents. So even if you wore shoes, to walk by the edge of the ocean you had to climb up and down these extensions. The ocean wasn't as blue as the Gulf side either.

That said, we did enjoy it. We woke up, ate the breakfast buffet, sat by the pool (sun reached there first) reading our book or working puzzles, moved to the beach, ate lunch, sunned again, went for a walk (Saturday we walked to the mall, Sunday down the beach), ate supper. Friday and Saturday we just read our books again, Sunday we sat at the bar.

Our trip down there was uneventful, our trip back was one event after another. To much to post here since I already said so much.
