Mazatlan, Mexico

My roommate from Washington, Dan, and I went to Mazatlan, Mexico on a relaxing 7 day vacation. The resort was beautiful and the area was nicer than I had expected.

Pool at night

View from our room overlooking the main pool and beach

For Maggie - some real architecture, sticks and all

El Faro Lighthouse, the highest (not tallest) lighthouse in the world

A Cave under El Faro

Colorful rock formation

Another cave picture while the fog rolls in

A white island - due to birds


Sea Lions from California - they got lost. This is the only small little island that they beach on.

Colorful homes of Stone Island


Mexican Limousine - A tractor with a trailer with seats

Boats beached on shore

My horse - Travis was more personable


Coconut grove on our horseback ride - Coconuts are the main industry of Stone Island

Sunset at the diving platform - Divers dive from the top into a very small pool area surrounded by rocks - They only do it a certain time of day as to not hit bottom or the rocks, it was canceled due to the Carnival so I didn't get to see them.

Would you like a picture? Sure! I told our waiters to all line up. Don't let the one on the left fool you, he's from Chicago!

Dan and I at Los Zapatos - Thanks for taking me on the trip!
