The "monkey" will never be the same.

Bang the... DRUM, er, yeah, DRUM, slowly! :oops: 🤬

Drive 7 miles south of Puerto Vallarta to Playa Mismaloya (where they filmed "Night of the Iguana" in 1956) on Highway 200. It has been overrun by commercial tourism, but in 1978, I camped on the beach. We had a pig stick his head inside our tent the following morning. (It belonged to the farmer...

I got stoned and I missed it. I got stoned and I missed it. I got stoned, I GOT STONED!

Ol' lazybones found that entertaining.

Since I no longer drink alcohol, (and haven't in more than 15 years) my kicks come from food, entertainment and some consumables. Beyond that, I find it far more entertaining to be outside my own cultural 'comfort zone". The last time I was in Tijuana, I actually helped visiting tourists buy...

Screw the "sads". My life is far more important than that of some mangy Ursine creature.

That never made it onto YouTube... Especially THAT tube! ;)

You are blessed to be alive. Many young troops/sailors go into the Old Country and either return with an "Undesirable Discharge" that requires you to repeatedly visit the "Chancre Mechanic" or far worse. :eek: 🤬 They didn't call them the "Peter Readers" without reason! :rolleyes:

Well, NOW WASN'T THAT SPECIAL?! (OLYMPICS.)

The point I was making is one of enjoyable food (both Chinese and Mexican Cuisine) and things you bring home. (Huaraches, Cologne, Sterling Silver/Turquoise rings and other jewelry.) You can legally bring home some nice things and wear them for years. There are some nice Mexican-made shoes (of...

The best seats at the bullfights (between 1 and 3 rings up from the sand) can run between $75 and $100 USD). The show runs about 2 1/2 hours and with three Toreros at two bulls each that's six bouts at 20 minutes each, it is worth the price of admission.

THAT TAKES ME BACK!

I go to the Hotel Aqua Rio (about $50 per night, Continental breakfast included.) This is on Avenida Constitution just off Avenida Revolucion. It is within the "tourist district". I can walk 12 blocks and catch a "bus" to the beach for about 75 cents). I'll walk four more blocks and tour the...

It depends on where you go and how you conduct yourself. I have been visiting for many years and have yet to run into trouble. I stay in the tourist areas and enjoy the hospitality of establishments I have known for years and trust. (Believe me when I tell you that there are such places.)

in either late May or early June (during the height of the annual Bullfight season.) I wish that I could afford to spend about $7000.00 (USD) on gasoline, transportation, food, lodging, and souvenirs (fragrances, etc.) I could even drive back with money in my pocket. THAT'S a vacation!

Old_me: I have used each and every one of these many times for a number of reasons. Soda cans, soda bottles, etc. You name it, I probably tapped it with one. The military can opener, many times.

I had a Muslim woman ask me for a foot rub after a date. I told her that I wouldn't rub her feet if a genie popped out of them.

Very nice.
