Puerto Vallarta Day 5

Wednesday 2/20 was Puerto Vallarta!! I would have to say this was our favorite port.  Our excursion to day was swimming with Dolphins!..... 
Yes you read that right swimming with dolphins! What a dream come true! As i type this I'm smiling ear to ear it was so much fun and such a neat experience that I know we will all remember for a life time.  
When we got off the ship it was overcast which made it feel more tropical. 

 We boarded a big bus and headed to the Dolphins.

 Puerto Vallarta was really pretty and reminded me of a tropical rain forest.  The town seemed more established then other towns we have been to in Mexico.  It was really pretty.
Once we arrived to the dolphin place I was blown away with the beauty! The resort was gorgeous! All the tress and exotic animals made for such a neat surrounding.  We all sat in an outside classroom where we were taught lots of interesting facts about dolphins.

 Then it was time to get our life jackets and swim with the dolphins.  Like our camel excursion we were not allowed to use our own cameras which was kind of a treat since then we didn't need to worry about getting the best shot or losing our camera.  We let them be paparazzi and take a million pictures of us and then we not only bought the picture package we also bought the DVD.  It will be so cool to show our grand kids one day.  
Once in the pool the trainer went right into it.  I was the one the volunteered to go first, then dad and then the kids.  The pictures speak for themselves we were beyond thrilled to have this experience! 






























 I could have stayed in the pool the entire day! It was truly magical and I so hope I will be able to do it again someday.  Little did we know that our most favorite meal was coming after our swim....


 Part of our package included lunch and this was the best meal ever! I think I had 5 tacos and hundred of these mega yummy cinnamon chips! 
Then we did a little shopping at the resort and took in all the beauty of the resort...

 They almost had to carry me on the bus I did not want to leave! It was that awesome!
The kids picked out the cutest stuffed dolphins...

 Once back at the ship we came aboard and dropped off all our goodies and changed out of our swim suites...
 We then ventured out and went to check out a Mexican mall...
 It pretty much looked just like a US mall.  I was hoping to get lots of good deals but surprisingly everything cost the same or more than what we are use too. 
 After our amazing day we made back on the ship in time for the Hasbro game show.  Yet again Spencer got called up on stage.  That's 3 for 3 every time we are at the games how he gets picked!

It was fun cheering him on! We then had dinner and a low key evening of watching a movie in our cabin.
