Well after been told 4 different times for the bus 5:30, 8:00. 9:00, 9:30 someone was looking out for me as I got lucky and picked the correct one 8:00 for the bus that left Granada to Rivas approx 1.5 hours trip for $0.90. Then I was suppose to catch another bus in Rivas to go to San Juan Del Sur got off the bus and the cabbies said there was no buses on Sunday "I thought that old trick" I couldn'tt find the bus so I took the cab for an extra $3 for 10 klm wasntt a bad deal. I found out later that the bus wasnt in the terminal yet "damn cabbies"

My backpacking skills are kicking in as I have been finding great places for$25 -$35 a night I could stay in the $3 a night hotels but I am getting a little oldfor that. I have been meeting some more great people.I had supper with a guy last night that was in the Vietnam war he had some great stories. Also had breakfast with a couple ladies from Israel and they talked about there countries troubles.
