The next one.

HEY FOLKS,

So I´ll summarize the stuff I liked in La Fortuna, and skipped the stuff that was a rip. We were in La Fortuna for more than I cared for but there were a few things I liked about it...probably because they were free. We met up with Paige and Luke with ease and stayed a weird hostel. My ¨dorm room¨ actually was a private room with a washing machine in it. The man at that desk...kind of reminded me of Dobby the house elf (ya terrible, I know I know)

The first thing I like was the swimming hole. Its exactly like it sounds. Rope swing included. I think I went everyday when I was there, sometimes twice. I have a tendency to wake up about 530 here since I am so hot all the time so I´d go for a swim.

ROPE SWING!

I never said I was graceful though, this being the result of my rope swinging. The picture doesn´t do it justice. Oh ya I often slip on rocks too.

Next, I enjoy hot springs. Correction, I enjoy free hot springs. La Fortuna has marketed them and many have redirected the water into hot pools at resorts, which doesn´t appeal to me in the slightest. However, we found out about a free one from the nice girl at the hostel. Its just in the river. She said its best to go at night, so indeed we did. Way better to sit in a hot river than a pool!!

The Arenal volcano is what heats the springs, and apparently still active,  I wanted to see some lava but it has been dormant for 6 months. Boring, but atleast we saw it.

We met up with my friend Jason, and had some drinks with him. Which made my 6 hour bus ride, standing in a crowded sweaty bus much less enjoyable then could be anticipated....combined with some car sickness to top it off. The best part was when the bus broke down, providing me with an adequate amount of time to lay in my misery at the side of the road.

We made it to the border (sigh of relief), and waited in line for 3 hours to get to get into Nicaragua. I enjoyed the experience mostly because its so obsurd. Especially all the people invading your personal space thinking if they crawl up your bum, the line will move faster.

Anyways we made to San Juan Del Sur and its hotter than hell. I think, I can´t be sure though.

I did take a surf lesson, but no need to see that mess.

I would like to take a moment and add my next segment of ....
Frustrations.

I am generally annoyed with decreasing my personal possessions on my own accounts, I have discovered it is even more frustrating when strangers think it is a good idea to decrease my possessions as well. I am officially down to one pairs of shorts with a hole in the crotch. So thank you a-hole, I hope you can squeeze your thieving ass into my clothes and they bring you happiness beyond your wildest dreams.

I´ll wrap this up.

Its easter week, which is a BIG DEAL in San Juan. Apparently, ¨Hey-Zeus¨ was a surfer, and a drunk one at that. Things start to pick up tomorrow, so we will see what its like, but we are outta here soon to do some camping.
