Puerto Vallarta — Walking the Malecón Area

Church of Our Lady of Guadalupe peeking over the rooftops

The Malecon is a great place to just stroll the beach-side walkway, browse the store fronts, and people watch as you pass the ubiquitous bars and restaurants.

Indeed, if you look long enough and drink hard enough, you might even stumble across a flying cow.

Watch out for the occasional celebrity strolling along the rooftops as well.

Beatles, Thrillers, and Other Giants

Some places were still decorated for the Day of the Dead, which always makes for a fun photograph.

And of course don’t miss the side streets and the lush park toward the end of your Malecon trek.

By the way, if you’re reading this and other material authored by me on The Destinary website, this post was not “Posted on (fill in the date) | By destinary” as they’ve been erroneously claiming; this material was in fact reposted. The Destinary have also been claiming the right to do so, without links back to the original and without full attribution (“by RDoug” and a nonworking link is not proper attribution) with a rather bizarre interpretation of U.S. copyright law in which they claim I’m responsible for changing my RSS feed settings so that they cannot skim my material for commercial purposes. That would make reading my blog less convenient for you, which I’m not willing to do. As such, I’ll be running this little diatribe on all travel related posts until they cease and desist, along with this:
