Back From Puerto Vallarta

When we arrived back from our Easter Break in Puerto Vallarta there was no time to post or upload pictures. So...sorry for the delay but you know how it goes! We did have a wonderful time and became more familiar with the beautiful city of Puerto Vallarta. Our favorite Italian restaurant located on the Malecon, La Dolce Vita, did not disappoint. While strolling along the boardwalk we found Xaime's art displayed near the Naval Museum.

This is Xaime with me.........

Two of his smaller pieces now reside in my craft room!

The city of Puerto Vallarta has so many delights to see...from the interesting statues and sand sculptures along the boardwalk...



































..to colorful displays in town to tempt shoppers....













We had an especially nice view from our room at the Grand Mayan.




Now I am back to a normal level of activity at home after teaching five days last week. "Normal" is three days of teaching, housework and knitting. On the knitting front, I have finished the latest installment from my Rockin' Sock Club - Slip Jig. It was really fun to knit and the colorway was beautiful!! Thanks Tina and Carrie. You can check it out on my Ravelry project page, if you have a mind to. There are actually five projects on the needles right now...some of them will be done (in theory) in time to go to Alaska with me in mid-May.
