December in Mexico is a fun time. In this mostly Christian country which is mostly Catholic we see many Nativity scenes. What is interesting is that they do not put Baby Jesus in the manger until Christmas morning! At first we thought he was stolen, then found out the tradition here.
The following pictures represent our local activities while we stay in Nuevo Vallarta. We have fished, ate, shopped and visited many towns here. Paradise Village is not representative of what we consider "real" Mexico so we spend most of our free time in other towns. Later blogs will tell more of the local area as does this one.

Here is the fish we caught, Rog gets the glory but we all ate it!
A view of Punta Mita on the way to the fishing grounds. You can almost see the Four Seasons Resort.
The planning committee for the big fishing expedition.
Dinner with friends in La Cruz

Dinner with our friends at Casa de Los Amigos, John, Rosie and Rosalie

The view of our room. There is only 3 rooms here so it feels like your own home.

A view from our lunch table in the town of Bucerias. We have visited this town two times now. We walked this day from here to La Cruz on the beach, about 6 miles.

"There must be a place to shop here"

We received 1st place in the boat decorating contest here at Paradise Marina in Nuevo Vallarta! Thanks to our penguin putting in endless hours on the bow of our boat. Probably the most photographed penguin in the world, she brought many smiles to passer byes.
