November 18, 2010 Puerta Vallarta Mexico

We arrived in Puerta Vallarta early this am.  We took the shopping directors advice and took a cab to a beach and restaurant called Daquiri Dicks. On the trip through the town I remembered that I really liked it here when we were here a few years ago with Judy and Eddie and I still like it here.  We had the beach to ourselves most of the time.  It was nice they charge you $10 for two lounge chairs an umbrella and to use the bathroom. we had frozen strawberry daquiris and Bill had a virgin pina colada with the best tortilla chips.  Then we had another round of drinks with nacho’s.  MMMM.  all this for less than $40 lounges included.  We then took a cab back to the ship and I laid by the pool while Bill went for his cigar at 3:45pm they started the sail away party.  Margaritas and rum punches galore with mexican appetizers while the band played Mexican music.  After a little while the dancers were up there and dancing and having everyone up on the feet doing YMCA.  Then they started to play some serious music and again Roger McGuinn got up and sang Turn Turn turn to a loud appreciative audience.  Now I am sitting here waiting for Bill to finish his shower so I can take mine and he looks out and sees that we are near Puerta Vallarta again.  The captain comes on and immediately says there is a medical emergency they have to evac someone so we are now 2 hours behind on our trip to Cabos........ This is the second old person to be taken off the ship this cruise and one went down in Prego the other night .... Yikes these old people need to stay home~~ seriously I hope that they both are doing well.
