Unlike other country's and islands we've been to in our travels, Puerto Vallarta is quite "Americanized". With over 50,000 expats from the US and Canada living in PV, the demand for places like CostCo, McDonalds, WalMart, Sam's, Home Depot, Domino's, Subway, K-mart, and so forth has created a not just "Mexican" kind of Puerto Vallarta. While at times it's quite convenient to find what you want when you want it, I believe it can take away from the true cultural experience. But we do go ,seek, and find those great deals and familiar foods like so many others. Here's just one of many trips however this one was on the bike! Of course Randall is used to traveling with "a load" on the bike and keeps everything balanced. :)
