Nothing like eating dinner by sunset on the beach nightly. After a day of yoga, birding, swimming, and hanging out with friends, we gather on the beach for our meal to end the day. Our days start and end on the beach with allot of beach in between. There are wonderful spots to relax in the shade or enjoy the sun. And there is nothing as fun as the pie lady walking across the beach with wonderful home made peices of pie balanced on her head. The hard part is deciding from lemon marangue, cheese, apple, pecan, coconut, chocolate and banana. Truly the best pie in the world and lots of tasting going on as we buy different slices and share the bites.
The Galleria Restaurant in Yelapa is a must visit spot for breakfast or dinner. The intimate setting overlooking the bay offers beauty in nature and art. Tatiana and Jeff exhibit wonderful peices of art work along with the profoundly beautiful space they have created to serve you food that is also an expression of art. We enjoyed walking over along the beach after our morning yoga class and all hanging out in the lovely Galleria that fed us on oh so many levels.

Our groups have been enjoying a day trip to the absolutely lovely Botanical Gardens south of Puerto Vallarta. The gardens are filled with a colorful array of orchids. Robert, the creator of the gardens, has a dream of making a home for the National Orchid Collection of Mexico in his garden. The grounds are lovely to walk. Their restaurant overlooks panaramic views of the river and has deliciously prepared food. It is fun to browse the gift shop and many plants are for sale. We welcome sharing the gardens with you on one of our Yoga or Birding Vacations!
