Hi Mike: - I saw that on Monday evening where the mexican coastline got hit
with extremely large waves from a severe storm 200 miles out at sea,
flooding a lot of coastal regions, washing away several hotels and
restaurants, from costa rico to acapoco, hope you weren't effected in your
travels. All the best. - Kim

Since there aren't any maps yet for Mexico, it was very useful to me to find
some user points already recorded for Puerto Vallarta by Rich Irwin. I have
added another 20 points but I have to say we are in such a nice place, there
isn't much incentive to go exploring. I'll be here a few more days and will
probably walk to town and record a bunch of shops.
