Third world sojourn

Okay, so....Helen and I are leaving this morning on our trip to Puerto Vallarta, Jalisca, Mexico.  We are not, however flying the same airlines.  Luckily, our flights are both on time (fingers-crossed), and arrive within 15 minutes of each other.  As far as the town, I spent a total of 12 hours there during a cruise, which brought me home the evening before September 11, 2001.  I hope that this trip ends on a much happier note. 

Anyway, my point is, the only research I have done on this area of Mexico is that which was given to me by the kind-hearted friend who is letting us stay in her condo.  That is soooooo not like me!  I did manage to pull a few ideas from the net last night, so hopefully we will be able to find something cultural during our visit.  Helen is leaning towards the dolphin swim, but after seeing The Cove, I will no longer participate in those activities.  Maybe a jungle canopy tour or something similar will keep me busy. 

If I can find a place with a good margarita and some Huachinango Sarandeado or Ceviche, I should be good to go!  I will keep you posted!
