Puerto Vallarta
Leaving Sayulita started with a disturbing discovery: Katirga's engine oil level is way too low, and that's never a good sign. Equally disturbing is the fact that I do not remember the last time I checked it since leaving LA. That was only 12 days ago, but she covered about 1700 miles in that time. Where and when did all that oil go? This with a brand new machine is very, very strange. I'll keep a close eye on it from now on.
Puerto Vallarta's size alone may prohibit it from being called cute, but it does have a charm of its own. The cobble stone road along the coast of its "romantic zone" is lined by restaurants, bars, and shops on one side, a walkway next to a beach on the other. The large scale sculptures decorating the walkway are genuinely interesting and perhaps the signature of Puero Vallarta. The beach too features many impressive sculptures, equally large even if less permanent.

I stayed in a dinky little hotel for $45. Very expensive for the place, but holidays keep the town full and prices high.

Hey Serdar,
Did you know Puerto Vallarta is Santa Barbara's sister city...They even have the same dolphin fountain you could see in SB at the entrance of the warf on state st.
I'm glad you are having fun.
No, I didn't even see the dolphins! Crap, I'll have to drop it in now... Thanks!
