Dear Editor, We've
been coming to Vallarta for years and this year is no exception.
We are bringing
seven others for a two week stay mid-January... and heard that the beach around
the marina is a mess… We're staying at the Crown Paradise... any info on
that area would be terrific. Love your paper and all the
terrific articles. The people of Vallarta are what keeps us coming back... We
seem to go to Vallarta, then try somewhere else, go back to Vallarta and so on.
This is the first time we're making it two years in a row!!! Thanks
a lot..
Dennise from Saskatchewan, Canada Dear Dennise, We
just spoke to the folks at the Crown Paradise. All their beach lounges are out,
the beach is fine and the hotel is operating at 100% efficiency, so your vacations
should be very happy ones... However, you should
note that the Crown Paradise is NOT in the Marina area. It is located on the stretch
of beach south of the Maritime Terminal... Have
a safe trip and a wonderfully Merry Christmas! The

Hi, I
am from Vancouver, B.C., and I'm staying in Bucerias.
I was wondering if you
allow "drop-in" Pilates, like maybe once or twice this week.
I have
been taking Pilates at home for two years (at the Dianne Miller Pilates center).
Thanx. Ariel Dear Ariel,
There
are quite a few places offering Pilates that we know of, in Nuevo Vallarta and
of course in Puerto Vallarta too. You would have to call them to find out if they
accept "drop-in" clients.

Dear
Editor, Thanks to Monika & Barbara who sponsored "Christmas
Cheer at Tapas" last Friday evening, December 20th to spread Christmas cheer
for the children's shelter Refugio Infantil Santa Esperanza (R.I.S.E.) The event
raised over $6,500 pesos which will provide fresh fruit and veggies to the children
for one year! Our hearts are grateful and thankful to
all who joined in and made this such a wonderful and glorious event. The entertainment
and songs of Christmas were sung by Barbara and her niece, as well as Monika and
their 3rd sister whom we met for the first time, and a wonderful sing-a-long by
all that attended. God bless to all those who contributed. This is what Christmas
is all about!!!!! Thanks again for your support in spreading
the news of giving by all those of us who live in Vallarta and those who visit
and get to enjoy our lives in Paradise. Warmest,
Sudy

Dear Editor, I
want to know why the person at the Puerto Vallarta airport at the departures X-ray
screening machine, took my batteries that were new in the original package. I
asked the man that took the batteries at the machine and he said "Batteries
could explode on the plane". I had batteries in my radio, camera, CD players
and walkie-talkies, and he didn't take those. This has never happened (to me)
before at any airport. I love Mexico and have been coming
to Mexico (Acapulco, Puerto Vallarta, Ixtapa & Cancun) for more than 20 yrs.
And this has never happened before. I talked with other passengers on my flight
home and they had this happen to them at this airport. Could
you check into this?

Hello, I
am visiting your fine city on December 31st for a one week stay. I've found a
lot of great information but the one thing I'm trying to find out, I'm not having
any luck with. I am wondering how New Year's Eve is celebrated
there. Thanks Lesley Jakob,
Winnipeg,
Manitoba Dear Leslie,
As a general rule, folks go
out for a special New Year's Eve dinner in one of the numerous wonderful restaurants
in this town. There are also many private parties in people's homes.
There
are fireworks in the center of town and all around the bay as the different hotels
celebrate, and there is music everywhere.
The attire is mostly casual, i.e.:
short sleeved shirts for men and ties are rarely used here.

Dear
Editor: Thank you for this wonderful way (www.pvmirror.com)
to keep in touch with our favorite vacation spot. We
will be down in PV again the 1st of February and be staying until the 1st of April.
My husband is an amateur radio operator and as we are driving down this year from
Canada he will have his mobile rig. Where does he apply for a Mexican license
to operate in Mexico? I have sent letters to various organizations
since September and have had no response. Any assistance you can give us will
be very much appreciated. Rosalie Connors
Manitoba,
Canada Dear Rosalie,
We haven't been able to find
an answer to your query, but perhaps one of our readers can enlighten us…

Dear Editor, Where
is the Gold's Gym to be located in Puerto Vallarta?
Thank you for your response.
Jon Stanley Dear Jon,

Gym is located in Plaza Genoveza. You should have no trouble whatsoever in finding
it once you get down here.
