"You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me?"

My impression of Robert DeNiro.

Here's a pic:

Have a great time in Mexico, David, let me know if you want more pics and impressions later.

I will be there in late September, Part of my cruise. Enjoy!

N2 GOLD · 07-14-2012, 11:04 AM

I'll be there on Aug. 4th for a week. When & where will you be staying at? I'll be at the Marival Spa & Resort. Great place for a vacation...

Staying at the Dreams in Puerto Valarta

On the balcony

With one of the smokes of my day

Me at the bar

Drazzil · 07-15-2012, 02:44 PM

Me at another bar

Looks good! Have not been to PV for years, but loved it there.... I caught a nice sized sailfish as well, which was pretty cool.

How big is that wood(teak?) deck down below you in the last pic? That isn't something I have ever seen at a resort in Mexico....and I like it!

Drazzil · 07-15-2012, 03:32 PM

This is one of the wooden decks

There are a few

The wooden deck on the first floor is about the size of a small bistro, because that is what it was.

Here is a view from the cafe where Iook the earlier photo.

CigarSquid · 07-16-2012, 07:47 AM

Looks nice. Have fun!

Drazzil · 07-16-2012, 08:13 PM

The good

The views are astounding

Cuban cigars nuff said.

The diving is great.

The bad

All inclusive is a lie. You are expected to tip by the staff everywhere. They are not paid well even worse then the US.

My hotel the Dreams sucks. The service is okay but the foods one step above buffet food tro.ph

The dreams tried to charge me 100 dollars for two days wash, then tried to trick me into accepting the charges by telling me it was Pesos.

The booze at the Dreams is rot gut. The mixed drinks taste of Jose Cuervo .

Apple travel service all inclusive is a scam. They are deceptive. In all things. Do not trust do not deal with book or talk to. They wwill try to fornicate with you through your wallet.

"Cuban" cigars in Mexico?
I'll pass.

Drazzil · 07-16-2012, 08:41 PM

I was shocked too but if they are fake they are the best Damn fakes I have had.

CigarNut · 07-16-2012, 09:03 PM

Unless you got them from an LCdH then they are fake. Count on it. That does not mean that they are bad per se. It just means that they do not contain cuban tobacco.

Drazzil · 07-16-2012, 09:28 PM

The shop I went to is an offical dealer listed on the dealer list for LCDH mexico . They look like a duck, quack like a duck, walk like a duck and taste like a duck, so if they are really pigeons I could care less.
