Puerto Vallarta Trip

Mar 20th - Apr 1st 2023

This was another great trip Puerto Vallarta with Alejandra. From the beginning, she said, this isn't a vacation, it's more of a trip to visit family. And that we did.

The first full night, Ale's aunt made us dinner at the Casa Coco, a rental property they look over. Above is the view from the house.

The first week, we spent the night in a cabin at Jorullo Paradise. Alejandra and I stayed at the Cordorniz Cabin. All of this was to celebrate Jose's birthday. It was a neat little getaway within a getaway.

We got to catch dinner on one of the nights at a place we went to the first time I went with Alejandra. On another one of the nights, we got to go out -- Jose showed us a really cool little bar right on the beach.

With Alejandra's family, a good group of us took a day trip to Tehuamixtle, a little coast city about 2 hours away from Puerto Vallarta.

Getting there from Puerto Vallarta was a little tough. The trip was made up of many winding roads. I got car sick and thought I wasn't going to make it. The water was freezing, but Alejandra and her cousins still got it. I didn't. By the way, this place has some of the biggest oysters you'll ever see.

We also had a really cool opportunity to do a Polaris RZR Tour at the Canopy River which if you ever get a chance you should definitely do! You end up going over one of the highest suspended bridges.

We also did a dinner and a show with Rhythms of the Night. Another one worth checking out if you're in the area.

We visited Alejandra's grandparents ranch. Some of her uncle's still have homes there or in the area.

And one of the big ones was being able to see the house that her parents are making.

Seeing the house almost didn't happen. We just had to find the time.

The trip ended with Alejandra's Grandma's birthday! We were suppose to fly out the night before but the airline company changed the departure date from Friday to Sunday, so we were able to attend the party!

That's a picture of her grandma and all of the grandkids that could be there. Our plane was leaving the next morning at like 7 am so this was also the night we had to say goodbye to everyone. It was a little emotional saying goodbye to everyone.

All-in-all, it was a wonderful trip. There was so much to do and so many people to say hi to. Everyone was super nice and accommodating and welcoming and I can't be anymore appreciative of that!!! Alejandra and I are looking forward to be able to go back!
