Road Trip Final Day
In spite of a good nights sleep, my miserable cold is hanging on, and we decided to forgo the Mangrove Swamp boat trip, and just point the car toward our Motor Coach and lie low for a few days.
Following a so-so breakfast at the beach side restaurant we ate at last night we headed for “home”.
The drive North along the coast toward Puerto Vallarta was very light of traffic and the scenery was beautiful. We continue to be impressed with the quality of the roads in this area. Following a by-pass of sorts around the down town area of Puerto Vallarta proved to again be a piece of cake and before we knew it we were in the familiar territory of Wal-mart and the airport. We stopped at Wal-mart to replenish some supplies and check out the cough remedies that were available.
We felt bad cutting this trip short as there certainly were plenty of little side trips we could have done from the area we were in and we will plan to redo some of this Road Trip and add to it when we get back down here for our next Winter stay.
If this little road trip did nothing more, it was a success in showing us that we can take off and literally go anywhere on lateral exploratory trips. The road signs were fairly easy to follow and when we did get a little lost all we had to do was point to the place on the map that we wanted to go and let our Mexican contact pantomime with large sweeping gestures as to where we needed to go to get back on track.
In the following slide shows, (I broke them in to two shows) are some pictures that represent what we were seeing as we traveled along.
