Today, some humour in the picture. This is the label on the 4 bottles of Buble !!!! bath. So funny all the spelling mistakes and the grammerical errors. We laugh every time we read something new and see all the translations. Give them credit, they try.....and they cater to the English speaking!!
After saying that we were not going to do anything on Sunday, we ended up setting the alarm and then meeting a friend in PV for coffee and catch up. Such a pleasant way to start the day. Good news was delivered with the tea and coffee.
HACIENDA MOSAICO is now open again and has an awesome lineup of artists ready to teach. Hacienda Mosaico is an artful B & B owned by a great artist herself, Sam Leonard. Many great artists have taught here and many more are on the calendar for the rest of this year and into 2010. Have a look http://www.haciendomosaico.com/ . Prices are reasonable considering you get not only the expertise of these teachers, but accommodation, breakfast and lunch (made by the remarkable chef - Lalo). Sometimes the teachers schedule excursions into PV old town to search for objects to include in your work. It is always fun to be here.
If you would just like a place to atay while you discover Puerto Vallarta, give Sam a call to see what she has available, even if you do not want to take a class. You will not regret your choice!!!!
After our coffee, we continued to explore the Old town, the Municipal Flea Market and several more streets. Along the way, we found some leather pouches, purses and a few more and they are all coming home with us. These are all items we have looked for in Canada but have not found. YAHOO we found them here.
Guess what? We got suckered in by a time share salesman masquarading as a tequila salesman, hawking a place in Neuvo Vallarta. He would not take no for an answer and then asked for a fee to hold our seats at the lecture and sales pitch. I refused to pay the fee to them to waste our time trying to sell us something that we do not want. The carrots he dangled in front of us were tempting but knowing what comes along with it - not so tempting. So, Angela, no pomegranat tequila....
By 3 pm we were weary and decided to head back to the hotel via taxi. Had a nap (isn't that what holidays are for?) and then went to the upstairs restaurant for dinner. A bit of a different menu. We both chose Chicken with a brandied mole sauce with an assortment of local vegetables. It was out of this world.... Two margarita helped with the digestion!!! and they were strong!! I could not feel my nose............
Today, Monday, so far, has been lazy. April is on the beach sunning herself and just resting and reading and i am up in the lobby on the computer.
