San Isidro has been a good experience thus far. Emily and I headed here to get towards Chiripo, the highest mountain in Costa Rica. We stayed in a really fabulous place for $6US which was highlighted by the trucks going by every 5 minutes and the car alarm that went off each time a truck drove by. On top of that, they decided it would be a good idea to fumigate the hotel for mosquitos (which there were none), without telling anyone what they were doing. We thought the place was burning down.
Theres a large church in the centro where we went to a evening mass and tried to understand what was going on. I understood everything that they said, as long as it was ´Santa Maria´ or ´Jesus Cristo´. Otherwise it was kind of a lost cause.
The morning brought sunshine and hot weather. We decided to go to the beach, only to find out that there is only one bus a day to the beach, and that´s at 7am (it was 8 when we found out). We went to a local market where getting a bit to eat was interesting. This guy showed us his drivers licence, and proceeded to wait for us to eat breakfast. I think he wanted to drive us somewhere, but we weren't really having it.
Off to hike Chirripo, the highest peak in Costa Rica. Be back in a few. Happy Halloween (yesterday).
