Getting off at what was told to be our corner we made our way to the hostel district before finally deciding on ...

... there around 12:15. I tell the lady that I have a reservation for 1:00 and give her my name. She replys that the bus is not yet there and she will call me when it has arrived. I wait and meet a few people at the station. Around 12:55 I go and ask if the bus has arrived. She tells me that it will be another 15 to 20 minutes. Around 1:10 I ask again at which time she tells me that my name is not on the reservation list and the bus is full ...

... were beautiful and very colorful as well. Again, the absolute best place we snorkkeled at (diving there is also possible). The next morning we got up at 5.30 to enjoy the main drawcard of Lovina, the dolphin spotting tour. Well, we saw dolphins, which was cool, but it's again just so touristy that it hurts. There were between 20 and 30 boats out in the water and anytime someone spotted the animals, all the boats raced to the same place at once! And the dolphins aren't stupid, so ...
