It\u2019s just too hard!!<\/p>\n<h3>On The Ground Observations in Puerto Vallarta<\/h3>\n<p>Okay, it\u2019s hot and humid. I had a couple of 4 shower and 4 t shirt days. So, what does it look like on the ground after the big flooding after Tropical Storm Narda, and now tropical storm Pricilla, If you walked around town, you would never know there was flooding. Aside from a few foot bridges washed out, no issues. The FIT Club is back open as well as just about everyone, getting ready for high season.<\/p>\n<p>There are some issues. First of all, the Los Muertos Pier is not lit up at night in beautiful colors. It\u2019s not lit up at all. It\u2019s dark, and they need to fix it before high season hits. I hope they will.<\/p>\n<p>The road from El Tuito to Mayto and Tehuamixtle is open. We were on it a couple of weeks ago with supplies bound for north of the area, and we managed to get all the way to Mayto with just a few tricky areas. But the road is open, so go and enjoy the beaches there if you had planned to go.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6454\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6454\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-6454\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191015_130453-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191015_130453-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191015_130453-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191015_130453-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191015_130453-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6454\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Playa Colomitos<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Speaking of beaches, Playa Colomitos, the first beach you reach as you hike along the trail from Boca de Tomatlan to Las Animas or beyond if you want\u2026the little beach at Colomitos was washed away.

I had <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/healthcareresourcespv.com\/\">Pamela Thompson Web of Healthcare Resources PV<\/a><\/strong> make an appointment with one of her docs to perform a routine scheduled colonoscopy on me and all went well.<\/p>\n<p>There was one hiccup though. I\u2019m getting up early in the morning to make it to my 9 AM appointment at the clinic near the Marina. I\u2019m Downtown so about a half hour away.

The receptionist asks if it\u2019s me, and I say yes, then she says you have a colonoscopy scheduled this morning. And I\u2019m like, yes, I\u2019m thinking I did all this awful prep for nothing. She says, Dr. Loya, he wants to know if you can come earlier. It\u2019s 7, the appointment is at nine, and I\u2019m like\u2026when, and she says, like now? I told her the soonest I could be there would be at 8 and she agreed.<\/p>\n<p>Then, on the way to the clinic, in the taxi I get another call and the receptionist says, is it okay if Dr. Loya doesn\u2019t do your procedure? We have another doctor here who is also a specialist. I\u2019m like, sure, as long as it\u2019s not his first bbq, she says oh, he is a specialist Mr. Kessler. I\u2019m imagining a kid, looking up colonoscopy on YouTube to brush up on the procedure.<\/p>\n<p>I was relieved to see the doctor did have some grey hair. At least he said he was the doctor. For all I know he was the janitor and they switched him out once I was out cold\u00a0 with the 13 year old.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_803\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-803\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-803\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Media-Pam-Good.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Media-Pam-Good.jpg 800w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Media-Pam-Good-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Media-Pam-Good-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Media-Pam-Good-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-803\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pamela Thompson, HealthCare Resources, Puerto Vallarta<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>No, it went fine.\u00a0 \u00a0I won\u2019t get into the procedure itself other than to say the procedure is the easiest part. You are asleep the whole time. The preparation was the hardest part\u2026look it up if you don\u2019t already know what in entails, the cost was $340 US and I was up and about an hour later. Took a cab home, then walked to Eddies for a haircut, then a bus ride up to the Botanical Garden, and then a meet and greet at Kelly\u2019s, all on the same day. How about that?<\/p>\n<p>So, I tell you about this because colo-rectal cancer is a killer that can be so easily prevented. If you are 55 or older, you should have a colonoscopy, and if recommended by your doctor, every 5 to ten years after that. Thanks Pamela and thanks to Dr. Joya\u2019s staff.

So, look, don\u2019t make this mistake, Compressed natural gas (CNG) (methane stored at high pressure) is a fuel that can be used in place of gasoline, Diesel fuel and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). &#8230; In response to high fuel prices and environmental concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Now it is true that the new air-conditioned buses were in fact donated by the Cartel Jalisco New Generation, to the city of Puerto Vallarta, yes\u2026really, but the stickers with CNG in the back are purely coincidental.<\/p>\n<p>One of the advantages to speaking Spanish is being able to get the story right from the street. I was talking with a friend who asked me,,do you know what happened to the guys who owned the old buses? I said no, I hadn\u2019t even thought of them. I was told they had some friends who owned some of the old buses, and they were paid very little for the old clunkers, and that they made a deal with the new bus company to fund them for a short number of years.

I am not endorsing, nor condoning anything here. You are all adults I assume. Right? So first of all, most of us aren\u2019t in Puerto Vallarta during Mushroom Harvesting Season. You can find magic\u00a0 mushrooms in the cow patties in El Tuito, with a guide, I always suggest a guide which I happen to know a few, and the time, like I said is a time when you probably won\u2019t be there because it\u2019s so damn hot, August. In fact, local shroomers call the month Hongosto. Hongo for mushrooms, and gusto for Agusto. Kind of a play on words. So Shaylin, go in August and get a guide. Also September works but by then, the grass is so high you won\u2019t be able to find them without searching through high grass, and believe me, you don\u2019t really want to be doing that if you know what I mean. It\u2019s a freeking jungle okay?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Places I stayed in Puerto Vallarta<\/h3>\n<p>So just a quick note on the places I stayed. The first place was a little studio right on the Malecon at Libertad. In Malecon Uno.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1vKdP-F3GBc\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The room was a room I had been in before. We were staying in the same building a couple years back, and we got there before they could clean our room, so they put us In this room till it was ready. The bed was a little hard as most beds are around here. I knew in advance from an Airbnb review, so I did something I had never done before, and I ordered an inflatable queen size mattress complete with an electric pump, and I packed it to use on top of the bed. And it was the best thing I had ever done. Everything was good about the place, no view but a private patio to sit on. The rooftop was amazing with a dipping pool and a Malecon View. I have a video in the shownotes, and I also have a full tour video of the Airbnb Condo Studio on The Malecon in the show notes as well as the YouTube channel. I would have extended the stay at Pablo\u2019s condo there, it was so convenient, and no hills, but the internet sucked, and if I can\u2019t work online at night, I\u2019m just dead in Paradise. I\u2019m busy doing interviews during the day, and I can\u2019t work at Vallarta Co-Work at night, so I needed to get out of there, just so I could get some Real Estate work done, so I switched to the Hotel La Siesta, above Downtown Vallarta. The La Siesta is the hotel beneath the Restaurant El Panorama. I really liked the place. The view was spectacular, I had a balcony, and a lovely room for just $55 US a night. But there wasn\u2019t air conditioning, just Mexican Air Conditioning, fans. But it was fine for me. And the same room doubles in price during the high season to $110 US.\u00a0 I also have a video tour of the place in the shownotes as well as my YouTube channel.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/DM6wT-uPdUI\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m doing an episode soon in the Hotel La Siesta and the Restaurant El Panorama in a few months, so stay tuned for that.<\/p>\n<p>Okay let\u2019s get to some interviews.<\/p>\n<p>As I was reporting earlier, after my Tuesday morning medical procedure, I got a haircut, and went to see what was happening at The Botanical Garden. I caught a taxi who dropped me off at the corner of Aguacate and Emiliano Carranza for a bus ride to the Botanical Garden. The fare was 30 pesos or a dollar and a half US. And I did what I always do, a grabbed a seat on the right hand side of the bus, so I could get a good view of the beautiful coastline on the ride down, and a view of the Rio Horcones Canyon on the way up to the garden.<\/p>\n<p>The bus dropped us off and I got there a half hour before Bob was to meet me, so I sprayed myself with some mosquito repellent, and wandered along the pathways through colorful exhibits of all sorts of flora. The Rio Horcones was roaring from the latest rains, lots of birds singing, tons of butterflies. It was a lovely day. I set up my recording equipment and Bob appeared at just the appointed time. There\u2019s always something happening at the Vallarta Botanical Garden and Bob Price, Founder and Curator has some pretty interesting news for us, so let\u2019s go right now to Cabo Corrientes, and talk with Bob Price right now at the Vallarta Botanical Garden\u2026.<\/p>\n<h3>Listen to The Podcast<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/11770136\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/backward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/87A93A\/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"90\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Okay.

In the show notes.<\/p>\n<h3>Let\u2019s talk about relief efforts in the aftermath of Tropical Storm Narda<\/h3>\n<p>When you are standing in Vallarta looking out at the bay. Looking south you see the land mass make a sweep, to a point, that tip is the village of Corrales.<\/p>\n<p>All along this peninsula are little fishing and farming villages. All of them are at the mouth of rivers, and are built alongside rivers. Fresh water.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m14!1m12!1m3!1d209923.39551897038!2d-105.58070577468446!3d20.416326872909707!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!5e1!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1571944680038!5m2!1sen!2sus\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Looking out on the Bahia de Banderas, looking south down the land mass as it curves forming the southern part of the bay, you notice the islands, Los Arcos. Mismaloya is approximately where los arcos is, then further down, a few kilometers comes Boca de Tomatlan, then the long beach at Las Animas, then Qumixto. And just a little more than half way along the crescent is Yelapa, then Pizota, Chimo and at the tip, where It stops, is Corrales. Then on the other side of the crescent are the communities of Naranjitos, Aquiles Serdan, Graciano Sanchez, La Parota and La Playita. Mayto, Tehuamixtle and so on.<\/p>\n<p>All along this peninsula, these little fishing and farming villages, all of them are at the mouths of rivers, and are built alongside rivers. It\u2019s the natural thing right? Fresh water is necessary. And once in a while, these rivers turn into raging rivers, and this is exactly what happened.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Almost immediately, groups sprung into action to bring supplies to these communities who lost their homes in many cases, their fishing gear and boats, their livestock, pipelines and sources of fresh water, all washed out to sea. Andy you can see pics of the debris field that Jimmy Plouff took, in the shownotes.<\/p>\n<p>Lots of the villages had no water supply, and bridges supplying gas and propane, and daily supplies were washed away.<\/p>\n<p>All of these riverside communities were affected by the massive flooding from Tropical Storm Narda.<\/p>\n<p>Now\u2026 last week we talked about relief efforts being conducted south of Vallarta in the Cabo Corrientes area. We talked about water filters, and we talked with our buddy Jimmy Plouff from Tunnel Road BBQ in Lopez Mateo. I picked up one of those 20 liter filters, the LifeStraw unit we talked about last week, and hauled it down in my suitcase. Very light and easy to transport by the way.<\/p>\n<p>When I got into town Jimmy asked If I wanted to join him with supplies loaded in pangas to Pizotta, they were going on Tuesday, but that was the day and morning of my medical procedure. So I was bummed, but he came back and asked if I would like to tag along on a relief caravan from Vallarta, to the communities north of Mayto that were cut off when their bridge collapsed. Of course, I was all in.<\/p>\n<p>Jimmy suggested I dress for jungle conditions, bring mosquito repellent, snacks and something to drink in case. \u00a0Also my LifeStraw unit. We would meet at his house at 5:30 in the morning, and head over to the DIF office in Vallarta.<\/p>\n<p>DIF, is short for Desarrollo Integral de la Familia. They help families who need help. And the DIF in Vallarta is traditionally run by the wife of the Mayor of the city, and the mayor\u2019s wife la Mtra. Candelaria Tovar de D\u00e1valos, is really a very special lady, and it was an honor to have met her, and to have had the opportunity to join in on this relief mission.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6464\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6464\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6464 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191011_142313-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191011_142313-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191011_142313-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191011_142313-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191011_142313-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191011_142313.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6464\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mtra.

North of Aquilles Serdan were the towns of Naranjitos, Graciano Sanchez, La Parota and La Playita. The representatives from the little villages sloshed across the river, knee and waste deep in water. Something they couldn\u2019t have done a few days earlier due to the speed and level of the river. We unloaded the supplies, all accounted for on paper. They knew who was getting what, and if they needed something extra, it was generally accommodated, like diapers or formula. We busted out the water filter and Jimmy and Frankie showed them how to use it. They drank the purified water from the muddy river right in front of them and they said\u2026looks good to us!<\/p>\n<p>The mayor\u2019s wife, Srs.
