Puerto Vallarta - January 2006

   After the first of the year, and in the depth of the rainy winter in Portland, John and Phoebe (Sue's parents) flew to Puerto Vallarta where they stayed for a week at the 5 Star resort, Paradise Village.   Dream Chaser was at the marina there, and we took three outings in Banderas Bay during their stay.
