You are quite right. My mistake. I've changed the spelling to H-U-S-T-O-N. Thanks for the heads up.

Dear LordBalfor: I spent some time at La Hoya de Mismaloya when I stayed in a time share, La Costa Vida, south of Puerta Vallarta.

La Hoya de Mismaloya was very impressive.

By the way, that man's name is spelled H-u-s-t-o-n: John Huston. He directed NIGHT OF THE IQUANA and THE TREASURE OF SIERRA MADRE. He put Puerta Vallarta on the tourist map,

The fears people have about Mexico, especially if we are talking about the beach resorts of Western Mexico, are generally foolish.

Regards.

Well Claudia,
I hope I didn't make it sound THAT nice. It was pretty terrific, but you may note that I only gave it 4 stars (I'd actually like to give it 4 1/2) instead of the 5 stars I gave Hawaii or Bora Bora. I have never seen anything to compare to the amazing natural beauty of Bora Bora - except perhaps Yosemite Valley or maybe even Puget Sound on a really nice summer day (when all the mountains are out in their full glory) - oh yeah, and the alpine valleys of the Bavarian Alps you mentioned in you last review would have to be on that list as well. Pretty darned spectacular!

It sounds like this one is worth considering! We have been so spoiled, there are not many places which can compare to beautiful Bora Bora!!! It sounds like you had a great time. Like the rest of the world I'm always a bit reluctant to go to Mexico, you put my mind more at ease though!
