I've spent the last 2 days as follows. Airport, layover, competent customs, incompetent overpaid taxi, look for lodging, find out lonely planet is wrong there are more buses to San jose, 15 hour bus ride augmented by 3 hour incompetent customs circuit, bus terminal pox complicated by overpaid incompetent taxi, bus terminal layover augmentet by very kind soda shop worker and baggage clerk who escorted me to Internet cafe ( wasn't on crap lonely planet map) and explained that I was in for a really long indirect trip to tamarindo. On overpriced bed now, don't care am no longer in transit! What I've learned: Don't bother with taxis if they can be avoided My Spanish needs improvement Don't take long bus rides It's worth it to fly Border patrol aren't going anywhere so why should you It is safe to walk in San jose between bus terminals! Oy vay! The only people who know the bus schedules are bus drivers Information is an oxymoron But hey, I got to see some awesome views of rainforrests and sit next to elvis (who is apparently a huge black man). I'm pretty sure I did something to amuse the natives. Oh ya! And I can use my iphone for wifi! So ha! Sent from my iPhone
