February 15, 2016. Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico. A Walk.

Late in the afternoon, we decided to go for a walk.  Mornings are best for walking but Ken works on the computer in the morning and I read so we four decided to walk after the heat of  the day.  At noon, the sun is straight over head and is too warm for comfortable walking.   We left around 4:30.  Just as we were leaving, Ken asked me to be sure to bring my small black purse, which has pesos and credit cards and identification.  Up until then, no one said a word about eating dinner at a restaurant.  All four of us laughed because we know what Ken was thinking.

Our walk took us  toward the Hotel/Time share, which means we turn right out of our condo.  Right down the center of the boulevard is a walking/biking path so we use it.  The path is flat and smooth and shaded so is perfect for  walking.  As we arrived at the Hotel, we walked along the canal and saw the biggest iguana we have ever seen.  He looked like a monster.  And we saw brown pelicans fishing by the boats.  The Hotel was holding a Valentines Day Festival.  We admired the decorations but kept walking.

At the end of the Hotel is the Mexican restaurant.   The sun was setting and the evening was glorious.  We four decided to have dinner.  We sat outside and enjoyed the warm air and ate our delicious food, which included dessert.  By the end of dinner, we were too weary to walk home so we asked to be returned to our condo in a golf cart.  We were tired but happy when we arrived home at 9:00.  What started out as a little walk ended up as a full excursion.  It was fun.
