Just waiting for the snow to stop

We are now a few hours from leaving and the snow is really making us wonder just how early we should leave. For a 7.30am departure one should leave Cobourg at 4am. But now with the snow we may leave at 2.

Meanwhile take a look at this blog - a PV realtor's site here And another graphical website outlining all the real estate developments and aerial pics, an interactive site here you have to click on "Graphical" on the menu.

Dreaming of another day trip

Yelapa is an idyllic village to the south of PV in Banderas Bay and can be reached by water taxi for 220 pesos return. Here is a web site dedicated to the activies, or non-activities of Yelapa. It all looks very good to me.

Google "Budget day in Mexico"

Google "Budget day in Mexico" and the first hits do not have one political reference all about doing Mexico on a budget. Well! that seems like the right priority to have.

Here is a link to a webcam, not streaming but static enough to show the day as it is - 75 deg already and we are minus 14!

Take a look at this paradise

One of our favourite places on Banderas Bay is Sayulita. This writer, Chester Allen, has captured the magic and put up some stunning pics here. Surf lessons cost $25.00 per hour. I might make it this year.

Read the morning paper, with a difference

Sit back, download the latest issue of the "Vallarta Tribune" here
How about the "Bandaras News " here

We are very impatient to leave - We wonder why?


Who wouldn't want to leave this behind?

10 sleeps

Today is the day to check out the forums for any new comments and to try to discover something we didn't know.
