January 16, 2012. Playa Royale, Mexico. Punta Mita.

it is the most expensive real estate in the state of Nayarit, which is impressive all by itself.  It all stated with the construction of The Four Seasons Resort and Golf Club.  At on time, Punta Mita was a sleepy little fishing village right at the end of Bandares Bay, but after the announcement that The Four Seasons was coming to town, the purchasers flocked in and built condominiums and resorts and restaurants.  Now you still have the fishing village along with the surfers and the millionaires.  It is quite charming.

Ken and Suzanne and I took the bus to Punta Mita along with the students and the workers.  The bus stopped right across from our condominium and took us to the highway, when we were required to cross the highway and take second  bus.  The bus was jammed with people which makes life more interesting for us who never take the bus at home.  This bus driver drove very fast.  I wanted him to slow down but finally a car driving modestly fast stayed in front of us so our driver was required to slow down, which was a great blessing to me.

We wandered around town and finally settled on lunch on the beach.  Then back home on another bus and another bus and finally, home by 5:00.  Suzanne and I loved the bus journeys and Ken survived.   Punta Mita is an interesting town,  but I would not want to live there.
