We had a superb time in Mexico last March, and I thought I would post a few pictures of that trip. Planning on going back in November.

Nice pics. How were prices there? How safe did you think it was?
Prices - Fantastic, tho we did hit the peak of the $/peso ratio. Got 14.1 pesos at one point, now its about 13.5, still very nice. A SOL (beer) served to you with chips and salsa on a beachside table with a white tablecloth was all of $0.47. A great breakfast was $3.5, our hotel in Malaque, two beds great patio w kitchenette was $17 a night. Dinner on the streets and a very tasty one at that ran about $3.00. Safe? Very safe, not even a hint of a problem. Course this is a pretty happy part of Mexico, and at 10 or 10:30 we were home.
What area or resort were you in? Is it just a beach resort town or are there any museums or ruins to go sightseeing?
To clarify We flew in to Puerto Vallarta, that's where the cheap flights are. Nothing wrong with PV, Fantastic city, Love it, BEAUTIFUL. But it is a tourist town - a good tourist town. We booked a first class bus to Malaque, 125 miles South down the coast from PV for $11.00 each. Melaque was FREQQQQQING fantactic. Small, no crime or threat,seemingly happy folks (this is something we monitor closely) Drop dead beautiful bay and all the great facilities you desire. So we view PV as a place to land and get good value air fare, and fron there we will always go south along the coast. As for ruins, I don't think there are many for two reasons. One the Mexic Empire was not around here, and if they were the humidity and beach slovents destroyed them.
