San José, 28.1.2008
Like a cat around the hot porridge we were tiptoeing around Sas José in the last days.
After we left La Fortuna (look at “stories”) yesterday morning by bus to San Ramon, we couldn´t decide where to go. We wanted to avoid the streams of tourits, that suddenly cover Costa Rica since we came back from Nicaragua and so we first headed for a beach.
In a town called Esparza, we got a lift from a cashew-nuts salesman and according to his information, the beach of our desire doesn´t even have accomondation.
After we looked at the sky and saw some big clouds coming in, we changed plans and finally ended up a bit further north in Mata de Limon, a place obviously very popular among locals. New-rich locals…
So everything was not exactly cheap and it was as noisy as it could be.
Today we decided that we are fed up with all this and that the idea of the backpacker hostel in San José, with the possibility of using a kitchen and a pool and enjoying the nice garden sounds very good.
With a bit of luck we got a lift from Mata de Limon all the way to San José and now we are back in the modern capital, where the air is not really good, but already a bit cooler and start getting prepared for our way back to good old europe…
