After 10 hours of driving we arrived on Melaque. We spent one night there and then went a couple of miles down the road to Barra de Navidad.

Wow...to think you were in a place in February where the weather was like summertime in Texas. I'm glad you all had a safe and fun time.

We stayed in a really nice place in Barra de Navidad, right across the street from the Sands hotel. The Delphin has very nice clean rooms and a deck to have your morning orange juice. The Lagoon and Grand Bay hotel provide a spectacular backdrop.

We did have a mission on this trip besides fun and frivolity. There is a Costco in Puerto Vallarta and Slacker needed some new batteries. Have you ever seen a Costco store with empty parking spaces at the front of the store?

We then made our way to Sayulita, a small town on the beach north of Punta Mita. It has been discovered by surfers from all over and the shops and restaurants are plentiful. Again we found a nice place to rest.

We would have like to stay another couple of days, but Teresa had a plane to catch back home to Alaska, so off we go.
