PV was lovely this year. (All pics are clickable for large size)

We spent lots of time walking the Malecon, town and beaches. Things were being bought and sold at the beach. Lots of ummm things…Weather and clouds made photography interesting but rewarding.

I love renting a car and taking off on sketchy roads with no GPS or cell service into the interior of Mexico. Navigating the steep, wet cobblestone streets of the city is very stimulating.
