After spending the night in Laguna de Apoyo, I decided it was time to head it on out to Ometepe (the island with two volcano's!). I was still feeling very sick in the morning and was trying to decide between taking the public buses and a taxi. The taxi was looking to be a tad to expensive and so I thought oh screw it.. lets take the buses. I took an 11 o'clock bus into the town and then transferred onto another bus that would take 2 hours to arrive in Rivas. I just listened to music the entire time and tried to not get hungry! A kind man on the bus told me to watch my luggage.. which I realized I had to do.. but it's always makes you panic a little bit more when someone else you don't know reinforces the danger!!
After arriving in Rivas I took a taxi to San Jorge and boarded the ferry to take me to Ometepe. The ferry took 40 minutes and was a beautiful ride there. The lake is incredible scenic with the rest of Nicaragua surrounding it.
That picture is taken from the ferry on the way to the island.I was very proud of my bus transfers and day of transport all on my own!! WOO HOOO Yeahh!!!
