Day 26

I got in a morning run, I know my days are numbered on runing along the ocean In the daylight at 68 degrees :(
Mom and Debbie head home today, they have a late afternoon flight and planned to go to the beach and use my room until  they head to the airport.
Laura and I decide to take the bus to explore Bucerias.  We have to take two buses to get there, took about 1.5 hours. I have only been there once and it was about 7 years ago so I asked a couple of ladies on the bus if they were going there, yes they are, told us to get off the bus when they do, also told us their favorite beach restaurant where there go twice a week to eat, drink and swim, all the way from PV!
The view down in Bucerias as we walk to the beach:
Our lunch view from our table :)
Shrimp quesadilla and margaritas :)
I really like the vibe and beach here, very quiet but not too quiet, a nice change from busy PV.  I think I would enjoy staying here sometime.
Having fun!
Shopping :)
Church in town square.
We had a eventful bus ride back to PV!
First event, still disturbed by it, a very inebriated local, drinking from a bottle of tequila was at the bus stop with us, he starts to board the bus, I hesitate to board because I am not sure I want to spend a long bus ride with him, the driver tells him something, we are still outside the bus, the man starts to back down the  bus stairs and falls straight backwards not even trying to catch himself hitting the curb and pavement hard, scary hard! Luckily some locals come and drag him out of the street,  we feel a bit helpless, we can't call the ambulance, sure hope he is ok! 
About half way to PV our bus lurches and clunks loud enough to startle us then stops in the middle of the highway, driver can't get it to start...... Now what? Another bus stops, we all get off and onto the other bus! After learning the other day that a bus is owned by the driver and or a family, they join the union and get a route but are self employed so they are not going to be radioing for a back up bus when they break down, we were at the mercy of a generous passing bus to stop and pick us up! And one did within minutes!
Took an afternoon dip in the pool before heading out to dinner at Los Muertos Brewery for pizza and wine.
