On board the pirate Ship
From Dec 12-2009 to Jan. 09-2010 Cynthia and I were in La Cruz, Mexico. La Cruz is a small town about 40 minutes bus ride north of the Puerto Vallarta airport. We rented a house there. one which we found on the Vacation Rental By Owner (V.R.B.O.) website. If you wish to take a peek at the house, or if you think the site might be of use to you click here.
During the middle two weeks of our stay, we were joined by the rest of our Comox Family. Along with them also came Jo Ross, Andi's Mum. It was great to have her with us.
One of the beauties of using this area is that it is now within our reach direct from our home town of Comox, as Westjet, one of our national carriers started flying direct flights from Comox to Puerto Vallarta this December. As another point of interest, this same carrier is negotiating with K.L.M. to be able to provide flights out of Comox to Europe in the not too distant future.
Back to the Holiday! We had a great time. The weather was superb, with temperatures in the high twenties or low thirties for the whole time we were there. We mostly relaxed on the beach or near the pool, but on a couple of occasions, we took boat trips to snorkel or do other activities. We also made great use of the wonderful Mexican bus system to see neighbouring towns and villages.
We mostly cooked our own meals at home, with everyone taking turns to cook so we took a session once every third night. On a few occasions, we went out to dinner. The trip was great. For anyone who wants to see a few more of the pictures from the trip, please click here.
