..waiting at the Texaco in Esteli, we are melting in the sun. We meet a french couple, cycling down the panamericana with their weird tandem bike, where one is sitting forward and the other one backwords.
This was about all the excitement of the day, since we were mostely sitting in the bus. We had to change busses in Managua, but that only took short time and was within the same company.
At the border we bought a duty-free bear for 1U$ and after we waited about 30minutes (or more) at the costa rican customs for somebody to show up for checking our loggage, our bus driver eventually decided that we had waited long enough and rushed everyone to pack the luggage back into the bus.
We arrived in San José pretty late and left the bikes in the busstation, so we could take a taxi to a hostel in down town.
Tomorrow we are planning to go to San Ignacio, a place where my brother once made a volunteership.
After Managua, San José suddenly appears to be a nice city…
