Its somewhat hard to leave costa rica.

I´m staying now for a 3rd night in La Fortuna. I missed the bus at 8 am this morning to Tilaran, which from there, i can take north to Liberia, and then the Nicaraguan border. I did a "don´t attempt to bike to the waterfalls unless your Lance Armstrong" (lonely planet) trek to la catarata...using a bike i rented that had stickered to its side, a decal that read, "Born to Be Wild". On the way, people around us would scream "animales!", "ustedes locos", or just shake there head, laugh and wave as they would pass us by taxi. All i could do was grin and let the seeping nicotine and alcohol roll down my cheeks and soak the ground. I slept well.

There´s a place called Gringo Pete´s, owned by this portly guy in his 60´s who strikingly resembles David Crosby...$3 a night. Lovely Lovely. I stay, because tonight, there is a Feria de Turista which in spanish, means drinking & dancing. I need to get the hell out of here...i hear its less expensive as i head north.

I don´t have a usb cable for the camera...no pictures...sorry. I´d love to write more about the characters, clowns, whores and slut puppies...but perhaps i´ll have to tell you myself. Ahora, voy a una fiesta. Peace.
