We stayed at the Mayan Palace which had the second largest pool in Latin America with 5 extraordinary restaurants on-site.  The picture at the restaurant was taken at El Dorados in Puerto Vallarta,  which was without a doubt, the best meal I have ever eaten with the best service too. It makes my mouth water just thinking about it!  The restaurant was outdoors, with the ocean twenty feet in front of our table and lit torches surrounding us.  It was extremely romantic.  The mariachi band was certainly a special touch.

We went on a day excursion to a private island called Las Calitas - here Dave went swimming with the Sea Lion and had a terrififc time. It was a beautiful hour and a half boat ride to this island where we spent the day kayaking, snorkeling, and visiting the wild life.  They offered pottery classes, guided tours through an orchid garden, and visits with monkeys, snakes, parrots and owls.

It was indeed a wonderful trip.
