Mismaloya, Jalisco Vacation Pics
Edited on Thu Mar-09-06 03:07 PM by XNASA
Here's a couple of digital snapshots I took down in Mismaloya this past week. Mismaloya was the location of the beach scenes in 'Night of the Iguana'. John Huston lived on a hilly point just to the south of the beach. Back then, there was no way in except by boat from Puerta Vallarta. Enjoy.

Chico's Paradise. A multilevel restaurant in a canyon just south of Mismaloya. Fantastic food and a wonderful cool breeze.

4. I got a great deal on Tylox instead. Hope you don't mind.
Never made it to TJ. Never got north of Puerto Vallarta.

6. Go there? Hell...we want to move there.
It's entirely within the realm of possiblies. Give us a few years and it's hasta la vista.

10. The Gay scene in Puerto Vallarta is muy caliente!!
You'd enjoy it I'm sure. Hell, I'm straight and I enjoyed it. Mismaloya was just a day trip, but we stayed in PV.

Best vacation ever. Cuban cigars, shrimp fajitas, fish tacos and Mexican Coca-Cola. It doesn't get any better.

18. Nice pics, but...
It's obvious that Mr. XNASA took all the pictures since we don't see any pics of him.....

I'm glad you had a great time. Nice pics. Beautiful. :thumbsup:

20. Those are forthcoming.
Cate took almost 200 shots on 35mm. You'll just have to wait until those are developed.

23. Beautiful! Thanks for posting these.
I spent my 40th birthday at Mismaloya back in 1992 (haven't been back since).
