Saying Goodbye, Dreams Hotel, Nuevo Vallarta

The road trip through Nayarit, Mexico must come to an end.

Before packing up and flying home, we've got one more night. Rooms at the Dreams Hotel in Nuevo Vallarta ensure we're close to the Puerto Vallarta airport.

From my balcony I've got a nice view of the hotel pools (so many!) and the ocean stretching far beyond.

Upon check in, we all discovered a bottle of champagne chilling in a bucket, just waiting for someone to pop the top.

And pop the top we did. Before saying goodbye to one another, the ladies of the press trip gathered round and shared a glass of the bubbly.

It always amazes me how quickly friendships can be formed on the road.

Close proximity and days of shared views, meals and road weariness either create friendships or enemies. And yet, in all my travels, more often than not, friendship is the result.

Just one more thing I love about travel.

The hotel pools look so inviting and it looks like the three of you had good time!

It was a good time, and I know...don't those pools look lovely?

Reading your posts about Mexico actually have convinced me to add the country to my list of "must travel to" cities.

Looks like you had fun!

Mexico is a must see! Everyone should go there --- and get away from the beach! The beaches aren't the true heart of Mexico!

Did you go in June/July? I am worried about the rain.

I did travel there in June/July, and there was rain, I won't lie. But there were also some gloriously sunny days.
