This is the reason I haven't been here with all of you. I was enjoying this calm relaxing view by the pool at the Palladium Resort in Punta Mita, Mexico, north of Puerto Vallarta. I spent the first 8 days of June here with My sister Julie. She was there for work, and vacation, I was there only for the vacation part.

This is the scene I saw the most, looking out from my poolside chair. After the hectic schedule of work the last week this was just what I needed. Dip in the pool, Mango drink in hand, book open, sunscreen applied, nap....repeat in any order desired.

The perfect recipe for relaxation, other than being homesick for my family, I could have stayed forever!

Coincidence: my daughter just returned from Punta Mita. She loves it and wants me to buy a plot of land so she can have a house built there. Anyway, I love your photo; it has all the elements for perfect composition. Though my husband would say, "Where is the Corona beer" That aside, the framing is perfect and three blues are very enticing. Nice job.

Hi Lori....
This makes me want to go on a holiday right away. The blues blend so well. I like the palm leaves on top of the picture. Great shot.

Very nice palette of blues. I hope you've got a great vacation.

What a peaceful and relaxing view, the cool shade under the trees looks very inviting as does the lovely pool. Lucky you!! The blues in 3 bands of different hue give a lovel effect. Very nice.

I won't blame you for forgetting us in TL for a while, who wouldn't? what a beautiful place... Excellent POV... 3 different blue creating a beautiful contrast with each other... Good composition! How I wish I was there... rather then in our Winter.. Thanks for sharing.. :)

Great shot with the crystal blue waters and the dark blue sky. This has "perfect vacation" all over it. I love it and wish I was in one of those pool chairs. Great shot.
