Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Donuts and Covid Testing!

 

 December 29th, 2021

Andy was up early for another round of surfing on the SUP, wishing he had found this sooner on the trip.

We packed up our place for the second time, officially checked out and headed to the beach. The boys spent time on the tubes in the ocean while Saylor worked on evening out her tan lines. We all watched intently to see if the donut guy would make his way down the beach.

After a few hours I got us situated with a table at El Barracuda for our second lunch there. Super excited since this time we had plenty of cash. At about the same time donut guy showed! The kids took care of everything and even got to use their Spanish a bit. Hudson came back laughing telling us Saylor told the guy he should go to his uncle to get change for us.

We ordered way too much for lunch with tacos, ceviche and surf & turf burgers. All of it was very good. The beach side location, great music and lovely staff made the meal. The music was so good we asked for the Spotify playlist, Taboo Tulum. Sad to leave this perfect spot and look forward to coming back someday. This is a great place for a last day because they have showers and changing rooms if needed before you hit the airport.





Back to Puerto Vallarta we decided to stay in a resort, Club Regina. It is a typical mega resort with giant pools, dance music and folks trying to soak up the sun. We liked that it was close to the airport, they provided Covid tests, gave us an easy day of pool time ahead of our afternoon departure. After checking in we took our tests and fortunately all came up negative! Andy and I went to celebrate and sit on a lounge chair to enjoy the sunset. They only had one room left given it is New Years week.  It was a beautiful room with tubs on the deck.  Kids decided to take full advantage.  




Thinking a massage could be fun Andy called Vallarta Massage. They let us know they it was very clean and professional then the conversation turned in an unexpected direction when the guy started to explain how prices varied based what exactly we wanted.  We aren’t talking infused oil or hot rocks, more like oral sex and masturbation. Once the true nature of the types of massages they offered became apparent, we recognized this wasn’t what we had in mind.

Dinner was done at restaurant at the marina and was unremarkable. Saylor stayed home and we picked up a pizza, also unremarkable and is likely the reason for some grumbly tummies. We did find a Pie shop that was amazing!
