End of the Trip

The end of my visa adventure went well. I had my first panicky moment while waiting for my bus to take me back to Costa Rica. I waited a good 40 minutes and was freaking out that the bus schedule had been wrong.. or wasn't coming.. since I had already paid for the fair. Luckily it was just very slow and did arrive!

I arrived late that night in San Jose, at around 10 p.m. After getting my luggage the taxi men were waiting to prey on us. One guy, apparently giving me the deal of my life said he would take me to my hostel for 5.000 colones.. which is like $10. I couldn't help but laugh in his face.. haha and then he said ok 4.000 and I kept laughing and he brushed me aside. I got the ride for 3.000 even though that in itself was still ridiculously expensive.. But I settled.

I got to the hostel, played catch up on emails and went to bed. I was exhausted!! I got up early the next day and caught the 6 a.m. back to Cahuita.

It was great to be back even though I had had an incredible adventure. I met amazing people.. and did something I didn't see myself ever doing!!
