Enjoying quality family time

I've been to Mexico a few times and every trip has been a wonderful experience. I've met people from different parts of Mexico, the U.S.A., Canada, and Great Britain and everyone had the same things in common; meet, greet, have fun and enjoy the moment.

Resorts are everywhere

A relaxing day at the pool

The cities that I've been to have very different personalities. While Cancún could very well be part of the U.S. (you'll see McDonalds, KFC, Pizza Hut, Denny's, etc.), Puerto Vallarta still holds on to its Mexican roots.

Peace, harmony and tranquility

Cabo San Lucas is just beginning to get into the tourist thing, but believe me, you can party all night long.

Pros and Cons

Pros:The people, history and culture
Cons:The "bodysnatchers"...they are everywhere!!!
In a nutshell:More than just Tijuana!!!
