Hello fellow travelers, welcome this episode of the Puerto Vallarta Travel show. I am your host Barry Kessler and I am just so happy to be to introducing you to my favorite vacation destination, and maybe even yours, Puerto Vallarta Mexico. That music you were just listing to is performed by Alberto Perez, the owner of the La Palapa Group of Restaurants. Those are La Palapa, The El Dorado [caption id="attachment_195" align="alignright" width="300"] La Palapa, Puerto Vallarta Mexico[/caption] Restaurant, and now, at night for dinner The El Dorado transforms into The Vista Grill. That's the Vista Grill that used to be up on the hill. Well now it has a new vista and that is right on the beach where you get the same Vista Grill Menu, and the fantastic Vista Grill service and what's best, is it's right there on the beach with a dramatic view of the Los Muertos Pier. You'll recognize the pier with its stunning sail like structure, all lit up at night with beautiful colors. You can enjoy dinner under the stars, with your toes in the sand right at the water's edge. ! It's so romantic, it's so Puerto Vallarta my friends! Today we have a very special guest but first, what's happening in Puerto Vallarta this week, the 12th of June, 2017. We had our first sprinkling of the summer the other day, but it was just a tease. This week will be the week the rains return to Vallarta. I'll be waiting to see if we get rain on my birthday, June 15th which according to our buddy JR is the beginning of the rainy season. Stay tuned for that report next week.

Marigalante Getting a Facelift, New Shows

[caption id="attachment_751" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Marigalante Pirate Ship, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico[/caption] I was reading an article in the Banderas News and it explains the absence of the Marigalene Pirate Ship this last trip down. The boat has been in dry-dock up in Mazatlán, getting her biannual maintenance done. Now I didn't know this, but the Marigalante is actually a replica of the Santa Maria, one of the three ships Columbus sailed across the Atlantic, and the Marigalante is the Spanish galleon that you may have seen out in the bay. She can be seen sailing out each morning, heading south to the cool beaches beyond Los Arcos, in fact I believe it goes to the beach cove off of the resort Majauetes, that Diana Edelman was talking about in episode 15, the show about vegan dining in Puerto Vallarta. Then every night you will see the Marigalante in the bay just off the Malecon, firing off fireworks at around between 9 and 9:30 each evening.
