Hey, well the weather situation in Europe is not always to predict! So maybe you're lucky! And rain is possible.. But the memory is the most important point! Hope you have a great time!

Puerto Vallarta
May 12, 2008 - May 20, 2008
Puerto Vallarta ~ Mexico! Land of sun and friendly, hardworking people. We explored the city of Puerto Vallarta, took a zip-line canopy tour, and basked in the sun on the beach and by the pool. We saw a tiny portion of a large and diverse county. ~ We want to go back to see more!
