I love your website and along with amigos visit and read. The video of the Ameca bridge is fantastic. We went from PV to Bucerias Thursday and got stuck for abour 1/2 hour. On the way back at 5pm, we flowed as usual. I am so very proud of the Mexican workers and companies who jumped in immediately and dealt with a major mess. Vallarta Adventures and others are to be lauded for their donating in the time of emergency. Bravo!
This is out of your area, but I am co-founder with Bob Price of the new PV Garden Club. Anyone who wishes can join and we encourage locals [we are planning a series of meetings in Spanish only] and ex-pat full to part-timers to join and help make PV beautiful with tons of floral plantings esp. bougainvilleas, first along the malecon and Parque Lazaro Cardenas then Basilio Badillo and Olas Altas with garden tours and window box/balcony contest coming in high season!.
