Today we are in beautiful
Puerto Vallarta Mexico we've been hanging around in downtown and the old town checking out the beautiful beaches
Going through stores different things like that. And today we are gonna be heading back to the Walmart area on a city bus
So we're gonna show you what that experience is like when we get to Walmart
We'll do a walk-through of Walmart and show you what that kind of looks like inside
But we've actually made our way down to the Sheraton here. We've walked for a couple of miles
You can grab buses from the downtown area, but we've walked down here and you can see across the street here
There's plenty of buses going by
Tons of them here in downtown and a lot of them say Walmart on the front. So we're gonna cross the street up here and
Grab one of these buses and see how that goes
Be really careful when you're crossing the street here in Puerto Vallarta, it's really busy
You can see there's people kind of stuck in the median in the middle
You don't have a lot of time to cross when it is your turn, but you can see there's more buses coming
We're gonna get across here and try and grab one that says Walmart on it
Some of them are newer buses and some of them older ones and we found this one which is an older style bus
So we'll get on here and pay our fee
Broken seat there
So that costs seven and a half pesos each to get on to this bus which works out to about 40 cents u.s
So really inexpensive to get on the bus here
And we are off you can see there's lots of shops around here there's an H&M over there
But what I'd really like to know is why he's driving with the door open
It seems kind of dangerous with kids right next to it
However, it is a hot and humid day here in Puerto Vallarta. So he's probably trying to cool down the bus
If you're looking for a bus that goes to Walmart, you can see in the windshield there on the right hand side
It says Walmart in really small letters. It's a sticker. Lots of buses do say Walmart on it
So those are the buses you're gonna be looking for?
This bus is definitely on the older side
But it seems to be doing the trick and everybody on the bus seems really friendly today. There's lots of families
So we've had a good experience that way if you've ridden the bus in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
I'd love to hear your comments on how your experience went
If you can leave that in the comment section down below. and this whole bus ride over to Wal Mart
Took us about 15 to 20 minutes
All right, so we are here at Walmart
I guess I need to go off on the back of the bus. There's lots of people getting on
I'm not sure about these people getting on at the back if they are paying or not
but they seem to be sneaking on there and
Will get off here
There's our bus one more time
So seven and a half pesos each like I said about 40 cents us
Pretty good deal to get all the way down here to Walmart. There's also a Sam's Club right next to us here as well
We are actually here on a Carnival cruise
You can see the cruise port over on the left-hand side, which is really handy that it's next to Walmart if you do need any
last-minute items to take back on the ship
Sunscreen and that sort of stuff but let's head on in to Walmart and show you what they have in there
And when you walk into Walmart, you're gonna see it's very similar to one that you see in the USA or Canada
And one cool thing my Wi-Fi on my phone was connected
to Walmart in the USA
And when I walked in here in Mexico my Wi-Fi automatically connected and I could have free internet while I was shopping in Walmart
All sorts of electronics, but we're not looking to bring a TV home to Canada
You've got swimsuits and dresses over there Puerto Vallarta bags. if you forgot your sunglasses
Or you broke them, you can pick up some cheap ones over here
It's always handy to have those when you're in the Sun. if you need a motorcycle, go ahead and pick that up
They've got some sporting goods and snorkels that kind of stuff
Alcohol, They have got a big alcohol section here
Wines and coca-cola. We don't have three liter coca-cola back in Canada. So that's kind of interesting
And also buy cans
However, I'm gonna go for a coca-cola from the cooler that's nice and cold
They are 13 pesos which works out to about 70 cents. There's lots of drinks to choose from in here
If you're looking to bring home some souvenirs
They've got lots of stuff here
Tons of stuff that says Puerto Vallarta on it and if you're looking to bring something home for your family
picture frames
Keychains maybe a Mexican looking wallet. They've got it all here for you or if you want to bring home some vanilla
They've got that here as well
36.9 pesos per bottle
all sorts of Mexican painted dishes and things
Sunscreen if you've run out you can grab that here. It's cheaper than on a cruise ship or at your resort t-shirts
There's tons of t-shirts here
and
Ninety-eight pesos. So five or six bucks for a t-shirt
Alright, so we are ready to pay for our souvenirs drinks and spicy Mexican candy, but on the way out
Don't forget to buy your ice cream cone from McDonald's 11 pesos around 60 cents u.s
Great deal, and there's also some free restrooms here to use before you head out for your adventures
Here's a look from our ship and in the background there
You can see you Sam's Club in white and Walmart next to that in the middle
there is a shopping mall over there on the left hand side with a big food court and some restaurants and
Department stores as well as free Wi-Fi in there at the food court and there's a Starbucks as well
