Spent the whole day travelling pretty much today .. have realised I dont really enjoy the transit days, much prefer to be in one place .. in Europe I enjoyed travelling around but here it always feels like such an ordeal. Caught the mini bus at 8.25, was chilly when I jumped on .. by the time we got halfway down the hill the heat hit me and I had to take the jumper off. There was just two others in the minivan (the obligatory american college girls).
The bus could have left a good two hours later and still made the ferry crossing at Punteranes, we had a half hour stop whilst the driver ate breakfast and then had about two hours waiting at the ferry terminal.
I got in to Playa Santa Teresa around 4. The hostel I found in the Lonely Planet was being renovated and had been closed for a month and a half, he says he opens tomorrow ..
Santa Teresa is right on the beach, quite tropical, all the dwellings are along the main drag - a super dusty road .. feels quite rustic, a lot different to Tamarindo or San Juan.
Caught up with Adam (the American guy I was hanging out with in Tamarindo), he has got a place near the beach for the month .. might stay in his spare bed, but dont want to cramp his style.
