Subscribe to The Puerto Vallarta Travel Show on iTunes Listen to the Podcast    Hello fellow travelers, welcome this episode of the Puerto Vallarta Travel show. I am your host Barry Kessler and I am just so happy to be to introducing you to my favorite vacation destination, and maybe even yours, Puerto Vallarta Mexico. That music you were just listing to is performed by Alberto Perez, the owner of the La Palapa group of restaurants,  La Palapa and The on the [caption id="attachment_195" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] La Palapa, Puerto Vallarta Mexico[/caption] Southside of town, right down on the beach in Puerto Vallarta La Palapa is one of Vallarta’s oldest and most loved restaurants with that toes in the sand experience right at the water’s edge. Breakfast, lunch or dinner, a great location and a great time awaits you. It’s so romantic, so Puerto Vallarta. If you haven’t been here yet, take my advice and get your selves down here. The people of Vallarta await you with open arms. Take my word for it. This week I have a real treat for you guys but before I get to my guest, let’s see what’s happening in Puerto Vallarta this week, the 9th of April, 2017. [caption id="attachment_105" align="alignleft" width="300"] Pay For Taxis Here[/caption] As you may or may not know, the Puerto Vallarta Airport is going through a remodeling process but my man on the ground Yael who works at the airport tells me that there are two of the Mexican Bank Affiliated ATM Machines up and running now in the airport lobby where you buy your travel voucher for your taxi or van to your hotel or lodging. That gonna make it easier to get your pesos when you land at the airport with your ATM debit card. For more information about money exchange and cell plans and what to expect when you arrive at the Puerto Vallarta Airport, you should listen to  episodes 2 and  3 of the Puerto Vallarta Travel Show where we talk about all of those important items and more so listen to the podcasts or read my shownotes to those shows. Now you listeners are really coming through with your great suggestions, your stories and questions all about Puerto Vallarta and I just want to say thanks! Thank you for reaching out to me with your positive feedback and really thoughtful suggestions. First, another great review  on iTunes. Those reviews really help me get to word out about Puerto Vallarta so please keep them coming in.  Give us a Good Review on iTunes! I got an email from John who is coming in June with his Fiance and he wanted to know what to expect. I talked with our next guest about that subject so John, if you are listening, I have an answer for you coming up soon from our guest, and let’s get to him right now. You know that I’m always asking you my listeners for your suggestions and stories right? Well our next guest did just that. He reached out to me and told me his story and I just had to bring him to you. His name is Steven Tenney and he is from New Jersey. Just love his accent I gotta say. Steven is a musician, he is a drummer for the Group Tequila Rush. Now the Group Tequila Rush   was created in 2015 by Carlos Urrea and Carlos came up with the name, he is the band leader, plays guitar and sings and  Danny Hermosillo who plays the bass and sings as well and Steven rounds out the trio. The group was created  as a trio for clubs and private parties around the bay area and they play year round. They don’t stop for the summer months. They play classic, and contemporary rock as well as wide selection of Spanish lyric Rock to cater to a domestic audience as too. They like to think of themselves as a “Music of your life” kind of group. Both Carlos and Danny are from Guadalajara and live in Puerto Vallarta and although I didn’t get a chance to talk with them, I hope to sit with them when I get into town next month and hear from them what they like to do in and around Puerto Vallarta.  Now Steven is going to come on and tell us a little about some places to go dancing and listen to music and party all along the  Bahia de Banderas. And he is going to tell us about some places I didn’t know even existed. I mean, alligator sanctuaries, and fresh water lakes for fishing in Nayarit, near the capitol of Tepic, maybe about 2 hours from Puerto Vallarta.  Many of my listeners have asked for suggestions of places outside of Vallarta, and you will be getting your wish today. Let’s get to the conversation with Steven Tenney, drummer for Tequila Rush, in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico!

NATURAL BEAUTY AND GREAT FOOD AND THE FRUIT TASTES LIKE IT DID WHEN I WAS A KID.
