I've come to realise anywhere in the world that is set up for tourism comes with it the shaddy as people who work in selling and doing the tours and all there lies they pretty much tell you Whatever they have to to sell the ticket or tour and then the actual tour agency who operates it makes up an excuse and says they ran out of time or the road is out and then cuts the tour short or ect... ect...

So today we went ATVing and we were promised 4 hours and we'd see the waterfalls we got 2 hours and no waterfalls then the isreali girl complained so much until the 3 guys who were all some ways middle man on the ATV trip all blamed eachother for 1 hour and made up random excuses and finnally we got our extra 2 hours and our trip to the waterfalls.

The second part of today well i'd like to just forget about.
While i wasnt around the girl i was traveling with bargained this volcano and hot springs tour however it turned out to be no volcano and a river that im pretty sure was the overflow waste of the real spa.

So that being said as they say a bad day traveling is still better then work and yeah with all the problems it still was a funish day considering the weather is complete shit.

I have decide to go back on my own i think i really want a few days to myself, it can be frustrating when you make a deal with someone and then someone else comes in and trys to get the deal better and by the end everyones being talking everyone in circles.

So anyways after this expierance with the tour agencies in this area of costa rica i have decided to head off on my own to the coast not sure where yet but somewhere with a beach and HOPEFULLY better weather I'm freezing here and all my stuff is soaking wet which just makes all the stuff going on a lil less pleasant.
