Boat ride from PV to Yelapa

Leaving PV.....
As crowded as Puerto Vallarta was...we hopped onto our boat at the correct time...and said adios to the crowds!



Always a thrill... the ocean was a tad wavey...at 4pm...when we headed off to go down the coast to Yelapa.. Hence my white knuckle ride...
Also we forgot how chilly it got out there...and our warm jackets were in the front of the boat where all the luggage was stowed.
The wind-blown look....



After about 40 minutes...we rounded the point into
the bay... and the town of Yelapa...


We were glad to see that it hasn't changed too much...
and our vacation truly began...


The town...unfolds...before us..and the new to us...pier awaits our jumping onto it... as that is how it's done...you stand on the gunnel and jump onto the pier.. then the boatmen.. toss your luggage...knapsacks onto the pier...for your retrieval..

Yelapa
Look up...way up... to the pinkish arches at the top of the hill.
That's Casa Milagros... our home for the week
-182 steps up from the path below it....-
I'm really going to wish I did more prep work...in the quad section!!!
Palm Trees... and ocean

I'm loving these pictures. This looks like the perfect holiday for you two...and the taxi story will be a good tale one day.
