Holidays  in Puerto Vallarta
Secular and Religious

Food selections during the holidays are 
plentiful and oh, so tempting 




Sand sculptures

 Virgen de Guadalupe

12 days of celebrations 
Dec. 1-12
parades, music, dance and food, food, food 


















Everyday for 12 days the parade and festival ends at
La Catedral
de
Guadalupe

Still festive, 
on a lighter note ...


What's a Holiday without a
concert and a Christmas carol from 
Barbra Streisand
live, onstage when she impersonates
Lena Horne, Billy Holiday, Carol Channing, Bernadette Peters, 
Betty Davis, Katharine Hepburn, Betty Buckley, Eartha Kitt and she sang a duet with Anthony Newley by singing both voices, 

Thanks, Babs
(Steven Brinberg in "Simply Barbra")

MAVERICK ROVER WORLD  Blog Post #82 PARIS, France   Paris Metro Definitely a life saver since we are convinced that we probably spent 20% of our time underground in the massive metro system traveling in and around Paris. This is not a complaint  because there was so much that we experienced.  Getting around Paris on the Metro is vey easy.  All you need to  do is purchase a Metro card for 2€ (Euros) at most subway stations, and then you can load the card with as many rides as you like. The card can be reloaded at anytime. You simply tap in with your card at the entry for the ride of your choice. The cost is about 2€ per one way ride, as long as you keep going in the same direction you never pay again no matter how many transfers you take.  Then your return will be another 2€, and so on. (if you are going to Paris anytime soon, we have the cards with a few rides left on them. Just ask and they will be yours for FREE)   On the map below, the lit...

MAVERICK ROVER WORLD Post #29 October 12, 2018 USA Portland, Oregon * Portland, City of 12 Bridges that span the Willamette River , each with it's own character.   While they all cross the same river,  there has been a divide for many years, west siders liked their side better and east siders liked their side better.  However, nowadays both sides of the river are known for their own identity. Each has  wonderful restaurants, businesses and social events abounding Mt. Hood rises in the background  and holds its "white cap" most of the  year * Every time we come back to Portland  we find it   delightful, heartwarming and it makes us a bit verklempt as we walk our old neighborhoods.  Many of the old haunts are still there, along with  a smattering of many new shops, restaurants  and new brew pubs * Of course, when you visit family in  ...
