Must be really hated to merit two simultaneous threads :-) Any case, creatures like that make you wonder if it wouldn't be good to institutionalize a parent license, courses, psychological profile, training and so on, before earning your right to have kids. Greetings Mogens It's always amazed me th...

Ah yes, the flashlights. My eyes aren't what they used to be, I thought at first it was just me... Truthfully, every restaurant has good and bad days. Our dinner at Bogarts was very good, including dessert. On the other hand, the only meal I've had at La Piazetta, recommended by most, was mediocre a...

My son and I had the fish and chips at Joe Jacks in Oct, and we both agreed it was some of the best we'd had. The slaw accompanying it was just ok. My wife and I ordered house specialty cocktails, and her cocktail, even after they *adjusted* it, had hardly enough tequila to detect. Overall, it's on ...

These fotos are amazing. You are making me miss PV sooo much, and I have a few months to go before I get there ... Can you tell me what kind of camera you have??? I have a Fuji Finepix S7000, about 3 yrs old, 6.3mp. I'm quite happy with it, except for its voracious appetite for batteries. It's an *...

We ate there for the first time last October and wished that we had tried it on prevous visits to PV. Yes, you're on top of the hill, but for us, that was the charm, the feeling of being so far away from town, surrounded only by the lush, green, silent jungle, enjoying a classic PV sunset, watching ...

Re: Christmas Goodies
I love Fruit Cake - either the dark or the light . Always have and always will and ain't ashamed to admit it . :) I've never made my own but I'll eat any that is offered . :) Smitty, you've given me the courage to *come out* on this one. I think I'm the only one in either my family, or my wife's, w...

We were unlucky cuz we DIDNT take your advice, and ended up going to El Set instead, but Diane came to trust my judgment pretty quickly. We had hoped to make it back to the Lindo Mar, but never made it. Way back, when we were planning this trip just for the two of us, we were on the verge of booking...

barter
Most of us have engaged in price negotiations when purchasing things to bring back home. Interestingly, on our recent trip, it had a different twist to it. We took the taxi to Yelapa for the day, and walked to the waterfall, stopping to have some cervezas at the restaurant there. On the way back dow...

Re: Lindo Mar
Insider tip - next trip, go 100 paces to the front entrance of the Lindo Mar and brunch there. Superior on every level. It's a favourite of locals for after church, so get there before Mass lets out. You won't be disappointed. Jennybean, that had been my intention, based mostly on comments here, an...

the first part, Oct 13-17
On our recent trip, we managed to go to a number of places we’d previously missed, as well as returning to some old favorites. We enjoyed most everything we tried, with only a couple of disappointments. First night, our cheeseburger-loving teenagers in tow for the first time, we went to Fajita Repub...

We ate out every night on our recent visit, and the best beef I had was at Bruce's and La Palapa. La Palapa has unbeatable beachside ambience at sunset, but Bruce's place is also quite charming, and I don't think I've ever had so much personal attention from an owner before. The arrachera steak is a...

This is the first trip we've had to PV where we needed to have public internet access, and I was pleasantly surprised to see how many places there were. You need to look closely, some of them are not so obvious, sometimes only a sign on a door, but they are cheap. Most in old town were 10-15 pesos/h...

Eloisa and Los Palmares
Hi all, have just returned from a fantastic 9 nights in Vallarta, arrived at home a bit before 8 last night. Our first night was in old town, at the Eloisa. We brought our teenagers for the first time, and tho we wanted to spend most of our nights south of town, our first night was to be in town, wi...

Re: BELIEVE ME
Thanks for your perseverance, Spud, we inquired at the restaurant, and they indeed said it was somewhere around 7:30. I have no idea where that 5:30 time comes from on the other website. I guess if it were Nuevo time, and on standard rather than daylight, that might do it... We'll reserve at 6-somet...
