Some pictures

So this is the monte compana place we first arrived to, it is alright. The staff is freaking awesome though, only two speak ok english. We stayed there four night, it was like 35 $ a night. Now the downside was that this place was out in the middle of nowhere and no bars...or senoritas
The first night we tried getting 2 beers and it was probably one of the most embarrassing moments of my life with all the dumb looks on peoples faces...it could be worse i suppose.
They had a bad ass pull with a stone slide, we have a video of that I will have to update later.

To get there we had to take a long ass walk, probably about half a mile to a mile, which would be from the bus stop/drug store/bar area.
The streets where freaking horrific, i mean no side walks buses that where hauling ass and pushing cars off the road...the police don't give a shit man! The hotel guy said that people even drive drunk which is mind boggling, i bet their drunk drivers are better then ours.
Poor dogs and horses just like kick it in the street... you know there as to be some kinda road kill. Surprisingly we saw only like 1 dead mongoose or something
This was a dog we found on the street all the times on our walks home, I call him, perro..he hated david, loved me though! to bad he had like tics and nasty worms on him otherwise i might have touched him.

Usually the weather was foggy/rainy. It is not what I expected at first. I was thinking very humid and hot place, why else run around in a loin cloth like the movies... The weather is actually hot when sun is out and with no wind. The humidity is not bad at all and actually feels rather good.
The one thing that usually got my attention was the smell, it smells like celery walking around here.
Though when sleeping, a dusk of wind usually carried the aroma of nasty ass mold. After one night was gagging at the though and finally decided to close the window.
The food is so so, the first dinner we ate was the chicken dish (it was between chicken or fish) and it came with rice and beans, which a lot of plates do here. There is some kind of what I think banana that is covered in what taste like a mc donald apple critter or whatever the hell they are. I am already sick of them, they have been on every dish.


We had to walk home at night a few times from coming back from Mirridia, we took the bus each time, and long behold a little demon waiting for us each time...
That little fucker would follow us down the ENTIRE WALL!!! and bring his dang puppies with him. Cute at first, but man at night, we did not want any attention.







Freaking dog.













This is a huge ass spider nest, we didn't want to kill them at first, but after two nights one of the eggs hatched and like thousands of them where running around. So i genocided them later when I got there since my bed was next to the door.










These are costa rican horses....crazy eh?








These two pictures where me trying to get the night lights but realise cameras need certain settings to function properly.










But so far so good, we are about to wander and find a bar in San Jose now.
