Happy New Year!

This is totally out-of-order in the course of time, but I wanted to mention it.
On New Year’s Eve, we decided to forego all the fancy parties, midnight cruises ad the street party on Olas Altas. Instead, we went to the beach with Luis, Monika, Melissa and Rudy.
We went to the beach club in Nuevo Vallarta. Luis made a big bonfire and everyone brought snacks and drinks. It was a cool night, not nearly as cold as it had been. The ocean was really rough. For several weeks in December and January we could hear the surf pounding at night even at our house.
The beach club is located between the Grand Velas and Marival resorts in Nuevo Vallarta. Both resorts were having parties. The velas had a big stage set up, but we didn’t try to sneak in and look at it.
At midnight, the whole coastline was lit up with fireworks. We watched the ones that the Velas set off. Probably we were about 50 feet away from where some of them were fired from. The displays that the two resorts had were great. Then we saw numerous other displays up and down the coast.
We didn’t stay out too much past midnight. But we had a really fun time and enjoyed visiting with our friends and their friends who came along.
