Mexico - Punta Mita

Here are some pictures from our trip to Mexico, Punta Mita. It's about 40 min. up the coast from Puerto Villarta. It just so happened that Rihanna was staying in Punta Mita, right after the "fight", we were searching for her the whole time. Our favorite town was Sayulitas. This town, is like a mini Huntington Beach. Most of the people are all American!? It's a little surf town, nice beaches, fun shops and restaurants. It was our favorite town to go too while we were there.

Since we couldn't afford the food at the resort we were staying at, we went to dinner at the towns around us. I feel like I was taken advantage of, every single vendor that came up to me, I bought something from. I felt so bad for them, I kept saying...aww, what's $10 out of my pocket for some chiclets, or a turtle blanket (don't ask), or a pottery platter (that broke in my bag), or a dolphin bracelet (found out is NOT real silver), or a gem ring (which is nice), or a whole wooden set of bowls that are carved into animals (my next hosting party, these are the serving dishes), or a marlin fish carved into wood (on my desk), or some earrings (that broke)...anyways..you get the point. I was broke by the end, and had a bunch of crap to take home. Even though Im in sales, I am a sucker for sales people. Im telling you, those booths in the mall that sell the "Salts of the Dead Sea", they get me every time. If one of those home alarm sales people ever catch me at home, GUARANTEED Ben will come home to an entire alarm set up with video, motion sensors, plus the bonus package with a 5 year contract. Since Im in high pressure sales myself, my work gives out an incentive trip every year if you bring in so much gross margin to the company. We stayed at the St. Regis, which is brand new last Nov. This resort is $950 a NIGHT! It's unreal. We had our own outdoor shower(oooh ya!), a little bungaloo to ourselves, and our very own Butler named Alejandro. There was hardly anyone there...it was crazy. Here are some pics for your enjoyment:
