What we loved:
Great way to spend some time

What we didn't love:
Some days there are way too many people there

We go at least one time every trip to PV. Most of the time it is a wonderful walk. But there have been a few nights that 2 adults vs. 3 young children and thousands of people that I got a little nervous and would grab a "kid strap." But we have never had a problem!!! The kids love to climb the statues and take pictures and it is so awesome to see how much they have grown from year to year. My mother likes to walk on the store side. And last time, we had our PV babysitter/friend walk with the kids to take pictures so me and my mother could jump in and out of stores across the street. The street vendors are wonderful! The local "donation" entertainment is REALLY by money only so be prepared for them to stop their act until they see you drop some money in the basket. And have some mexican change in your pocket for the young children selling gum. And if you have to use the bathroom, the local parking lots are open to the public but you have to pay for toilet paper. Some business well let you use the bathroom when you have children like Halo.
