We didn't have a whole lot of time to find our Puerto Vallarta apartment after we committed to requesting early-retirement. From New Westminster, I had had a running email conversation with a property manager here. Of course if one has a budget like Oprah, there are always posh, million-dollar suites available. That doesn't describe us at all. So, we were a bit fortunate this place remained available. In fact, as we were late to the party, we lucked into needing to pay for just five months whereas half year arrangements are the norm.
Now that we're nearing the completion of the first winter, we are more sure about the dates and familiar with the required logistics of leaving. We needn't wait until the fall before making plans. In fact, we began thinking about next year during this one. If we were heading back in this direction, of course, it'd be easy to scope out new places while in town. We're not.
Actually, we are planning on being seven time zones ahead of this place. Still, with Facebook messenger and web pages, one can nearly seal the deal with an ordinary notebook computer. I'm going to include pictures of next year's basic abode. I find editing images is an excellent way for me to better visualize the future.
So, here is some photographic evidence of the fact we will enjoy warm days in very simple surroundings from November 2015 to April 2016.
