How do you describe the most enchanting evening ever experienced with the right words to give it the feeling, texture, and depth it deserves? Clearly we are not gifted Shakespeare's, Victor Hugo's or Danielle Steele's. Nevertheless Every effort will be made to describe the allure of a magical evening that "Rhythm of the night" is. Few words can describe accurately the beauty of three thousand candles and four hundred torches lighting the "island" with absolutely no other source of lighting. Little flickering specks of light become brighter as the boat that carried us slowly made it's way to Caleta a 45-50 minute boat ride from Puerto Vallarta Mexico. The last glimmer of sunshine dims upon our arrival to give way to a half moon that makes much stronger presence in Caleta than in most places with bright city lights. A very welcoming crew show the way to The dirt path leading to the amphitheater that will serve as the stage to a spectacular Vegas like quality show. A mixture of acrobatics with prehistoric themes are performed with fire lit torches. Several prehistoric numbers are performed eloquently and precisely to the rhythm of the harp, violin, flute and perhaps other instruments we did not see. An hour of creative, imaginative visual and audio stimulus led way to an amazing gastro satisfying moments.
At the end of the show we were led to our dinner table just a few feet from where the crashing waves hit the rocks that protected us from getting soaked… An array of flavorful dishes line the buffet table, wonderful traditional succulent entrees filled our stomach as we listened to a string quartet and several soloist serenade the guests.
We were mesmerized with the beauty of Caleta and hope that we are fortunate to live long enough to return someday soon.
Although we did not return to our hotel room until after midnight we were happy to have experienced one of the most satisfying evenings in all our vacations.
