Here's the latest from the North Shore of Vallarta from our dedicated on-line 'Town Crier', Valiene..
Lots going on this week in our area. I got extremely hungry when reading some of the food fare as I deleted telephone numbers. If you're interested in all these diverse goings-on and get all the way through this, you'll be salivating at the end! Guaranteed. LOTS of excellent restaurants in this area.. Ciao
