Bucerias

 Our time in Bucerias was very relaxing. Thank you Martie and Wes for allowing us to stay in your home. The girls had so much fun and we were also able to celebrate Addi's 3rd birthday. I think we succeeded in making her feel special. My favorite day other than Vallarta Adventures was the day we went to Sayulita. we even spotted some whales while we were them! We had delicious food every single day. Phillip and Don Wes got food poisoning from some tachos al pastor. We stayed home the day before we left to Ahualulco because Phillip was weak and dehydrated.

We also met really neat people, they treated as very kindly. I miss that about Mexico. Here it isn't so friendly, at least in our neighborhood.










































Guadalajara, Jalisco

We spent three days in beautiful GDL. We stayed in a very historical and very Mexican hotel, Hotel Frances. They had live music most nights we were there, from 8-10:30. We were able to do lots of touristy activities and do a little shopping. The girls had fun and so did we. It was a little stressful at times because I am not used to the public bathrooms there. I think I have become a little spoiled living in the States for the past almost 14 years. But I survived  and so did the children. One of my favorite activities was Plaza de los Mariachis. We had dinner at a restaurant there, while a Mariachi band played a few songs for us.
