Our dia adicional commenced with one last trip to La Marina Vallarta for b’fast at La Terraza di Roma - our go to restaurante which didn’t disappoint. Strolled back to the Marriott where I left the remaining tourists and managed to get a brisk walk circumambulating the neighbourhood one last time on this trip. Found the team relaxing at the beach/pool and enjoyed a couple of Pacificos while grabbing some rays. I haven’t actually laid out in the sun much in a long time and found it to be pleasant, while managing to not get sunburned. Karen had been suffering from the return of a fairly nasty cough and Darlene helped select some medicomento para la tos seca en la farmacia. This trip actually found some success in acquiring useful stuff at the ubiquitous pharmacies in this locale. The hours drifted past and we were glad to have been granted a late check out time of tres hora. Got freshened up and met Bruce and Dar in the lobby after their visit to the wonderful spa at the Marriott. Airport transfer to el aeropuerto provided by the hotel (big brand new suburban) was an unanticipated benefit, and we found traffic to be unusually sparse - we got there in record time well in advance of our departure. Bruce had some heartburn over the strangeness of this “recovery” flight which was not listed on the system he uses to keep an eye on what’s happening in the skies. Check in was smooth and we were glad to have upgraded our seats and got the priority service. All was well and a plane did show up, boarded and departed with a lot of empty seats on the extra flight from PVR to YYC. Flight was smooth and made up some time getting us back to the frosty north and found our luggage off the plane promptly, no trouble and customs and grabbed an airport limo that got us home in record time through the dark, cold, snowy night. Whenever we return unscathed from adventures, I reflect on how much I miss Dad and now have no need to call Mom to let her know we’re home safe. Great trip, glad to be home.
