I've taken some pictures but because I don't have a plug in my room and I'm typing in some small, enclosed room where I keep hearing ruffling noises and there is no internet.... Thus I can't upload this entry or the pictures. I hope to do so soon. I will be bringing my computer to Cosi tomorrow in order to use the wireless because this is ridiculous.

Lots of gringos, outnumbered 4 to one by hot Ticas, were accompanied by some of them or were drinking and playing games of roulette, poker, 21, etc. It was a $4 cab ride to the other side of downtown where my stay, Hostel Luna Y Sol, was located.
