THWACK!Hit by a little white truck belonging to the cable guy. Yes, it was a very slow speed accident....but I was still fricking freaked out, and still am. The truck hit exactly where i had been sitting.
While sitting on the road waiting for another Interbus to come by ( their motto by the way, is "Really Fast! Really Good!--they forgot 'Really Scary!') and while these 3 friendly brits on vacation kept feeding me candies to keep me from losing it, we watched the ordeal as the local Tica bus tried to get around our accident. Umm, so the dude driving the bus (an old school bus) actually drove off of the road to get around it. What was funny was that none of the locals were phased by any of this, or the fact that they needed to get off the bus before the driver could try his fancy manouvering.
After another hour of shit roads ( we actually started sliding backwards at one point because of the rain/mud. I thought i was going to shit myself)we made it to our little Eco-lodge the "Arco Isis". Its super nice, the people are friendly, and there is maybe the cutest puppy i have ever seen in my life here ...next to Roo and Marf! of course...who i miss terribly.
Tomorrow we head to the Monteverde Cloud Forests and have a guide booked for 6 AM (say what!?!?!! are nt i supposed to be on vacation? ). Now, I need some food. Finally we get to eat some local 'comidas tipico' and I keep reading about how delicious 'casados' are.
PS-- Casados do rule. Its like a plate with rice, beans, salad, hearts of palm, plantanes, and either chicken, pork or fish...and costs about $2 to 5 despite the fact that there is enough food on the plate for 2
PPS-- they have Cuba libres in a can!!! MMMM
BFF Forever
PPSS-- my hair is shit here. stupid humidity

Casados kind of sound like the Taco Bell Zesty Chicken Border Bowl that I am so fond of. Except, like, a zillion times better, I'm sure.
