Just wanted to thank you for all of the incredible episodes I&#8217;ve been able to listen to over the last few months. I just spent 8 days in pv visiting family and friends and I absolutely fell and love and have never been so heartbroken to return to cold and snowy Northern Ohio. Your show continues to help me through the rough days until I can return again. I&#8217;m hoping for 16 days next February and the info I was able to get from your episodes for my first trip was priceless. I have a ways to go to my retirement years but plan on making this a lifelong endeavor. It was the best 8 days of my life and I can&#8217;t wait until I can do it again. Thanks again and keep up the good work!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Bryan<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I stayed at Puerto de Luna up towards the marina. Mid grade place. Nice pool, nice grounds, great bed and amazing air conditioning. I got a basic room, clean bathroom, worked great for me. Great location next to a awesome food court and two blocks from a big grocery store and atm. I&#8217;ll be back there for 17 days next February and if all goes well maybe move into town for return trips down the road.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Quick synopsis and I&#8217;ll try not to bore you. Spent the days with my parents and I would get cleaned up and go exploring at night. I ubered everywhere. Worked great. It really was life changing for me. Took my mom on rythem of the night cruise and dinner. Nice boat ride, great dinner, fun show. Well worth every peso but no need to do it more then once.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Took a day and went to Yelepa. Great day, and hiked to the first waterfall. Eating shrimp tacos out of a locals kitchen was mind blowing.\u00a0Spent a morning hiking the cross with my dad. Best view in the city. Had a food tour with Joanna from pv food tours. The taco stands, nothing better.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>After days spent with my parents I would get cleaned up and go exploring at night. Margarita time, best Margaritas I found. Wild and crazy nights at Andeles, Elixir, Pour Favor (funnest bands ever) and even being a straight guy, Mr. Flamingos was a blast. Lol.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The people and friends I made were just the greatest. Some of the shanigans and &#8220;trouble&#8221; we got into will have to get saved for a night over drinks. Lol. Drinks at Langostinos during sunset and lunch at the Blue Shrimp will be ingrained in my mind forever.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I could go on and on but you have heard it all before. A quick 7 days felt like 30 min. A lifetime spent there wouldn&#8217;t be enough. It changed me forever.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I&#8217;ve been lucky and fortunate enough to do some traveling and see and spend some time in some great places. I&#8217;ve never been anywhere where I almost cried as the plane took off. I left a big piece of my heart there. The locals were just the kindest people you will find.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Again I thank you for what you do and for taking the time to even reply to me. Very generous of you with your time considering just how busy you are. If you are ever in the area, next February pizza or a ipa at Los Muertos and or Monzons&#8230;&#8230;it&#8217;s on me. We would have a great time chatting it up. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Two quick parting things. First I&#8217;m spending the next year attempting to learn some Spanish. I feel its the respctful thing to due at the minimum. As of now it&#8217;s like trying to teach a fish how to walk on land&#8230;.lol&#8230;..but I&#8217;m making the attempt.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Lastly I&#8217;ll leave you with this. Last night there me and friend chatting over a beer and I said to him &#8220;can you come up with one negative, one bad thing about visiting here? Just one?&#8221; We both sat in silence for a minute and he finally said &#8220;the traffic. The traffic when cruise ships dock. It&#8217;s brutal&#8221; and I replied &#8220;you are absolutely right. But, sitting in a car, staring out the window in paradise&#8230;.. is still better then sitting in a car, in any other place in the world&#8221; and that, summed up my trip.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Take care. Keep enjoying your life, and I eagerly await your next episode. Thanks again.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Bryan<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Well thank you Bryan\u2026That\u2019s making some trip out of your first try. Sounds like you didn\u2019t waste a moment of your time amigo. My parents are both from Ohio, my mom from Cleveland and my dad from Toledo, but both their families moved west, and they both met as teenagers at LA high and were high school sweethearts. I imagine you miss the warm Vallarta weather. Me too. It\u2019s been a cold and wet winter here in Southern California. I can\u2019t wait for some Vallarta sunshine myself.<\/p>\n<p>So Bryan, thanks for the email and thanks for playing the game\u2026listening and getting a feel for the place before you land which is the whole idea of the show in a way. Very cool. Oh, and that feeling you get when the jet turns up the thrusters as it heads down the runway to leave paradise, I still get it every time Bryan. Every time.<\/p>\n<p>Now I was going to read you some hate mail, but I decided after reading them over I\u2019d not pick that scab. Most of them were written out of fear. Some of them were pretty mean, and I\u2019m a little sensitive and protective of you my listeners. Look, I\u2019ll just say this to all of you who still listen, who write me to tell me I\u2019m not a doctor. You\u2019re right. I\u2019m not a doctor, and you know what? \u00a0I\u2019m not a travel agent or an airline pilot, but I still tell you to get on a jet plane to fly to Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>And thousands take my advice.<\/p>\n<p>Did you know that there is a law now, in the state of California written up and passed by a bunch of politicians, who aren\u2019t doctors by the way, making it illegal for a doctor, a medically trained doctor, to prescribe medications that these politicians deem to be dangerous for\u00a0 these physicians to prescribe to their own patients, for the treatment of Covid.<\/p>\n<p>So, politicians, setting the rules for doctors. And if a medical doctor chooses to speak out against the current state of care, and choose a different medical course of action for their patients, the doctor then, runs the risk of being punished with fines and having their medical licenses revoked. So no, I\u2019m not a doctor, but it doesn\u2019t matter what a doctor says any more now does it, if the doctor faces losing their license if they don\u2019t obey the politicians who again I will re-iterate, are not doctors. \u00a0Anyway, I apologize to anyone out there who I\u2019ve killed doling out medical advice like taking your vitamins, which by the way, a doctor can\u2019t legally prescribe for their covid patients.<\/p>\n<p>Once again, my condolences to all of you I\u2019ve murdered. \u00a0How\u2019s your supermarket checker by the way? How on earth did any of them survive the last 3 years?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, thanks for the emails.<\/p>\n<p>Hey, let\u2019s get some exercise, something doctors should have been prescribing during the pandemic, but didn\u2019t\u2026. and let\u2019s learn about dancing salsa and tango, in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.<\/p>\n<h3>Learn To Dancing Salsa and Tango, in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.<\/h3>\n<p>Now Salsa, is not a native Mexican dance, nor is the tango.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11024\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11024\" style=\"width: 819px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11024\" src=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/330134290_1252916565353550_8268179888031367119_n-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/330134290_1252916565353550_8268179888031367119_n-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/330134290_1252916565353550_8268179888031367119_n-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/330134290_1252916565353550_8268179888031367119_n-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/330134290_1252916565353550_8268179888031367119_n.jpg 853w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11024\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Israel Andalon Dancing in Vallarta<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In Mexico, the most \u00a0most well-known Mexican dance is the <strong><em>Jarabe Tapat\u00edo<\/em><\/strong>, often called the \u201cMexican Hat Dance\u201d.
