Pits, Peaks and Points – Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

 

Hudson

Pit: Flight cancellations

Peaks: Drunk kid in the hot tub, time in the surf

Points: Bring tubes 

 

Saylor

Pit: Getting a terrible tan and getting stuck

Peaks: Carmen’s food and reading

Points: Bring swimsuits that will leave good tan lines and Netflix in Mexico is superior to American Netflix

 

 

Cindy

Pit: Credit card being canceled at 2:30 in the morning while trying to book tickets to return home. Always hoping we were going to pass the Covid test.

Peaks: 1st night - Dinner at La Palapa – sun hitting my face, defrosting from the Seattle cold. Enjoying conversation with the family. Happy hour on our patio with my honey.   Last night – seeing our plane cross over into the United States! Such a relief!

Points:  If traveling during Covid bring emed.com test kits with you. Usually do this, but bring extra credit cards.  Enjoy the challenges too because as your family motto is….It’s an adventure!  

 

 

Andy

Pit: Covid always in the back of our minds, uncertainty about getting home

Peaks: Getting in the ocean every day, everything about Careyeros Beach, surfing on the paddleboard, time with family, Carmen’s food and outlook, reduced life stress and being nicer to each other.

Points: Overrun Sayulita is no longer charming, bring extra credit cards, leave the boogie board at home but don’t forget the tubes
