So this is it, the last installment of our amazing trip
to Puerto Vallarta.

| She was LOVING the strawberry daiquiris! |
On Wednesday Dad, Angi & I took a bus into
town for a local Art Walk. It was really fun, we
got both a lot of walking and a lot of art in. : )
It felt a little brave as we scoured through the
narrow streets on what felt much like a
scavenger hunt, looking for the next art gallery
on our map, in the dark.
The next day Dad & Jessica went on a 3 hour
They had a wonderful adventure and I am so glad
they got the opportunity to do it, together.
Next time I must try it too, what a cool thing to do! : )
In the mean time, John & I took the kids on the bus
back into town for our own little adventure.
It was a nice little family outing walking the water
front and checking out the parasailers and all the cool
statues along the beach.
We stopped at a few little restaurants along the way
to soak in the experience. Sadly our little all inclusive
bracelets failed to work for us there, I kept joking that
I was going to wear this bracelet forever, trying to
utilize it at home once our trip was over : )
Back at the hotel we happily reunited with
our all-inclusive benefits.
I'm usually not one to like buffets but this
place actually had a pretty amazing one.
Every morning you awoke to a delicious breakfast,
there with endless amounts of fruit and fresh squeezed
juice, an omelet bar where they made you omelets to order,
these wonderful sauce covered chips that we couldn't get
enough of, hash browns, french toast, really you name it,
they had it.
The dinner buffet was no different, endless
choices and cooks ready to make anything you
desired. There were no less then hundreds of things
to choose from, they tended to do a different theme each
night so you were never stuck with the same old thing.
Ava & I loved the dessert bar, ice cream with
a million toppings. They even had someone
standing by ready to make bananas foster, a
liquor flamed banana saute.
It was really quite lovely.
If all that wasn't cool enough, they had tequila
tasting every night. They would even leave a set
of bottles just out on a table for you to help yourself.
I *might* of added some to my drink here and there : )
We began talking to Ava about how we would soon
be needing to go home. She was sad, she so many
times had said "can we stay here forever??"
But in Ava fashion she looked on the bright side
and thought about the opportunity to chew bubble
gum on the plane again. (It turned out that was less
of a draw when we actually had to leave)

| I love this picture with all my heart. |
Could she be cuter? It was such a blessing to be able
to spend extra time with this girl solo since Ava was
living it up over at auntie's. Thank you Jessica for that
gift, it was really nice of you to take her in, it made
our trip that much more vacation-y. : )
We took Dad & Angi out to dinner at Le Kliff in an
attempt to thank them for taking us all on this wonderful,
magical vacation.
The place was beautifully situated right on a cliff
with amazing views all around.
The dinner was wonderful! Dad & Angi had actually been
here before but were eager to enjoy it a second time with us.
Ava also got to try Shirley Temples, at home she
mostly has to stick to milk or water so this girl was
in heaven!
Check out this platter of deliciousness!
Creme brulee : )
Such a silly goose!
Our one group shot!
This trip was really more then we could of ever asked for.
Wonderful resort, food, scenery, swimming, drinks, entertainment
& so much more.
But the best part?
Sharing it all with the people you love.
We are so very blessed.
