Sharing Travel Tales from Around the World

A family vacation in Puerto Vallarta combines the flavor of the west coast of Mexico while offering a feeling of home. Hotels, restaurants, and beaches are clean, drinking water is safe, and community policing is present at all time. Any supplies you may need for your infant or child are readily available at the local grocery stores and “Farmacias.” If there is a medical emergency, the health care is excellent.

A picture like the one below needs no explanation. I was just glad I was attached to the camera that was taking it. This was the beginning of a wonderful trip and I can understand why my daughter and her husband chose it for their wedding. The island of Santorini, Greece (or Thira – the original name) is a magical place built mostly on cliffs overlooking a hidden bubbling volcanic caldron. The island is small and a person can walk from one end to the other in approximately four hours.
