Quinta Avenida

one of the numerous gelato stands
  One of my favorite things to do here in Playa, is walk around Quinta Avenida (5th Ave) at night.  It is a pedestrian-only street that comes alive with lights, people and music after the sun goes down.  (Hey, a walk is much more pleasant when the cool, night breeze is there to cool you off!)
 
  I love that the traditional mariachis are seen walking right past the new Converse store, t-shirt shops, bikini huts and dozens of pizza and gelato stands.  (A large Italian population means lots of great food.)  There are tons of musicians who traverse this town at night- serenading anyone who lends an ear to listen.  Gosh, I love music!  :)

  Here are a few photos I shot during one of my strolls.
