Internet cafes are sprouting up in nearly every corner of the town. But, Puerto Vallarta still remains true to her beauty.

our walk takes us to Rio Cuale that separates Downtown Puerto Vallarta and Zona Romantica. This is a tourist trap! At the foot of the bridge you can find many souvenir shops that you can buy the useless gifts .. just for the heck of it. But, our programme today is to go to the Church of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

A quick stop at Starbucks before the church.

And, never failed! They mispelt my name! But, they gave me what I asked for. I guess my Spanish wasn't as bad as I thought.

Calle Iturbide - one of the most beautiful streets in Puerto Vallarta. Situated on the top of the hill, this area is filled with Bed & Breakfast and prime real estates.

Chinese food in Mexico? Yes, it's very common sight! We didn't try it, after all we didn't come here for Chinese food. With an exchange rate of $1 = 12 Pesos, this is a very good price.

Now it was time for us to go back to our hotel for dinner and evening stroll.

New condo in Downtown Puerto Vallarta, still trying to preserve its colonial looks.

By the time we finished exploring the town. It was a late afternoon and it was time for early dinner and evening stroll along the beach.

We picked Langostinos for our seafood dinner. It price tag was just right and the location was perfect.

Started off with salsa and chips with a big cocktail drink.

Main course was a seafood combo in chili sauce.

It was a rainy season in Puerto Vallarta, but the dark cloud never stops us from having fun.

Beautiful condo along the beach.

And this is where Rio Cuale meets the ocean.

Day 3: Today we decided to do a little advanture of our own. Playa Mismaloya is one of the beach I always visit on every trip to PVR. Mismaloya itself is a small village South of PVR. Situated along the Mismaloya River and right on the beach. Getting here is very easy. You can pay a taxi 250 Pesos or if you are comfortable with your Spanish - for 5 Pesos, you can take a bus. We asked the locals for the bus stop to Mismaloya, paid 5 Pesos, hopped on the bus, had a great conversation with a nice guy from Tepic (with such a heavy accent that I understood 80% of his Spanish) and before we knew it we've arrived at Mismaloya.

Then it was time for lunch. YES! For those that know me, I'm a vegetarian... well more like a Pescetarian when I'm on a holiday.
The seafood here is fresh as you can get.
