I have to make my border run today. My SO and I went last night to buy my bus tickets and all the early bus tickets were sold out. So I'm taking the afternoon bus. And since it's at least 9 hours in bus (depending on how long the border takes) that means I'll get to Granada between 9 and 10pm. My bus leaves the next day at 6am because I'd rather get back to San Jose early so I can rest a little before going back to work on Monday. So basically I'll be on a bus for double the amount of time I'll be in Granada.
I wasn't really excited about going to Granada, in fact I was dreading it, but I finally decided to make the most of it. Granada is a beautiful city and I thought I could at least take a walk around and eat some street meat. But now even that plan is slashed. I'll get there at night, overpay a taxi driver to take me to my hostel, go to sleep, wake up, overpay a taxi driver to take me to the bus stop, and then get on the bus to go home.
*sigh* This is going to be exhausting.
Now to attempt to find some cordoba (Nicaraguan money) so I don't have to give the taxi 5USD when it should be less than 1USD.
Here's some pictures of Granada for those who have never been (probably most of you)
Ridiculous
At least it IS a beautiful place! Even at night
Hope you get a good night sleep in there!
