Hola,

The "Blue Chairs" in Puerto Vallarta is easy to get to...you can take the public bus and be there in about 15 minutes or so. It isn't really a gay beach, but located in front of a gay owned hotel at Playa Los Muertos.  The last time I was there I don't recall seeing any lesbos but if we all show up it is instantly a lesbian beach (gotta love the power of women)! There are lots of vendors and you can sit under an umbrella, drink margaritas, order ceviche and skip the waves to your hearts content. A warning though...there are lots of vendors selling everything from necklaces to hats to blankets. It can be a bit annoying but tolerable.  I have found PV to be pretty Gay/Lesbian friendly with a large population of expats and vacationers as well as locals.

I'm single traveling with a friend so if any of you are arriving early and want to do drinks or something in San Diego on the 3rd...in lieu of  "couplefest" aka the wedding :>) I'd be willing to try and organize something. I'll be staying at the Hard Rock.

See you in October,

Zenzi

Solos - we are going to have a fabulous time!  Drinks

I heard that PV has a gay "friendly" section of the beach - the 'blue chairs' section called Playa Los Muertos, and there is  a tour company there that runs tours for LGBT folks - www.dianastours.com

Just wondering if any solo's have thought about a fishing excursion? I would like to go on one but really don't want to sign up by myself. My last cruise I was booked for a fishing trip but my ex got sea sick so we canceled the fishing trip. Since I am going solo this trip I would love to experience a fishing trip. Anyone else interested???????

Hi everyone!! I also just went through a painful break up!! I'm so interested in going on this cruise - and in noticing that there are so many people going solo, just wondering if anyone is interested in a room mate??? That is if that is even allowed...???

Hey Ladies,

I can't even put into words how excited I am about this trip. I also just came off of the Cruise for our Cause with purplehayes,. We were both solos and I had a blast. I will be traveling solo again. I am sooo addicted after just taking my first Olivia Cruise. I had to rebook immediately.

It is a marvelous experience going solo, because you don't have to wait around on other people as you may sometimes do in a group, and you can always go your own way or slip into someone else's fun. There are drinks available almost 24/7 if you need a little liquid courage to do that. I mean there were things I never even heard of being mixed on the ship and I was in at least 3 settings were someone in the group offered rounds of drinks for everyone.

The bonds you will make are excellent. I am 26 years old, and mingled with ladies from 25-60, very free spirited and open environment. I am really looking forward to meeting more fun ladies and taking many life experiences with me for a second time around, and hopefully many more to come. If you see me speak, I shouldn't be that hard to spot. I don't bite. ha.

See you in San Diego,

Jess

Hey Solo Friends,

It's getting closer to cruise time. I am very excited to meet new friends and think we will have to get together and enjoy lemondade or lemon martini's (my choice) like k8kat mentioned. Drinks

Keep in touch as the time gets closer.

Kate-

You will have a great time.  There is so much to do that you will be able to take your mind off things.  My concern is that I took this cruise last year with my partner. We had a wonderful time. Now that we are not together I am considering this cruise again but wonder if it will make me sad or if I can forget the past and make lemonade with you Kate!  jo

I wasoriginally booked to take this cruise with my partner, but following a mutual(but sad) break-up, I have decided to go on my own! I am finally starting tofeel excited about it and am now looking at the opportunity through "neweyes". I have travelled solo extensively in the past (Europe, Africa) butnever considered going solo on a cruise....that said, when life gives youlemons...you make lemonade...and heck, I think I'll go farther than that andmake a lemon martini!! And I strongly suspect I may share one or two of thosemartinis with some fun and interesting women.

 

3-monthcountdown, here we go!
