Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - As you have probably seen in every publication you have read lately, the Mayans predicted that December 21, 2012 would usher in a new World Age. Their belief was based on astronomical observations, and their highly complex calendar ends on that date.
But the meaning of this event has been hotly debated by scientists, Mayan scholars, and New Agers. A broad range of theories have the event meaning everything from new hope for mankind, to the end of the world - depending on who you choose to believe.
Join us at the Vallarta Botanical Gardens from 10 am to 6 pm on Friday, December 21st as we wait to see which - if any - of the theories behind the end of the Mayan calendar proves to be correct! What better place to meet the "End of Days" than in the beautiful Vallarta Botanical Gardens?
Enjoy our special "End-of-the-World" cocktails and delight yourself with one last meal in the Hacienda de Oro. There will also be apocalyptic movies and music for the day.
Come join us and enjoy the spectacular view to the end!
