As the Burrito Burns

Step into the surrealishious and amazing world of Mexico as told through the eyes and mind of a teacher who has spent the past 20 years living in the coastal city of Puerto Vallarta. A wide range of experiences stretching from the serious to the sublime: living, working, marrying, birthing, teaching, eating, drinking, frolicking and fraternizing and so much more. There is so much to see and do, to tell and be told the list never gets old here at "As the Burrito Burns."

Shop, Drop and Woofin' at the Wharf.

The shopping selection in San Fran was nothing short of epic! The stores were a feast for weary eyes and there is a dazzling array of merchandise all beautifully displayed. I'm used to perusing a selection of stained and hideously colored cotton T's at The Commer, Gigante and Chez Wooly's (which can be positively depressing at times). It was the equivalent of leaving a dry, boring desert and finding a sumptuous oasis! I think I was salavating! We hit Victoria's Secret, Nordstrom's and a tri-level store known as "Forever 21" before heading down to a fabulous food court where I bought some chocolate covered espresso beans and a beverage before hitting another level-energize! Once we were shopped out and more than ready to tie on the feed bag, we headed to Fisherman's Wharf and scarfed down shrimp, clam chowder in sourdough bread bowls, crab meat dipped in seafood sauce with fresh lemon and some calamari all purchased from the stands. Yum-o! Then it was back to Pam's for a vehicle switch as we were bound for Karla's pad in Sacramento and of course more shopping! Karla used to work at Nordstrom's so she is in the know about the best discounts and I was only too happy to follow her knowledgable lead. We both vowed to return to Pam's ultra cozy digs in the future which I think will be sooner for Karla based on logistics.
