Mexico- puerto Escondido
Kategori: Allmänt
After the rafting we stayed in our jungle cabins one more night and took off to Puerto Escondido in the morning. It should only have taken around 6 hours with the minibus but the locals had put out road blocks and would just let 5 cars pass every hour if they payed massive fees. Apparently the government took five teachers to jail from a local village without providing any reason so this was their only way to meet the governments rediculous bail bill. It is an ongoing issue between the teachers and government because the new government are privation gall education in Mexico.
So happy to finally arrive to super hot Puerto! This was the hostel we chose after hours of searching. Hostel pakoloko and only 30 dollars a night for 2 in a spacious room. The first thing we see when talking with the receptionist is a cute little kitten under the reception desk, with something in it's mouth. We looked a bit closer and it was a huge lizard!! I asked the receptionist if the cat was supposed to chew on the lizard and the owner came by very chocked. The hostels nasty cat mamazita had killed the lizard pet and fed it to her kitten. Haha even if we were a bit disgusted by the whole scene we chose to stay...
One afternoon we took a taxi for 25 pesos to the markets in the city.
We bought a big red snapper and lots of fruit and vegetables, we looked forward to cook after getting served the worst food in the jungle.
When we came home we found the two remaining lizards sunbake next to our room.
We put the food in the fridge and went to the beach. We didn't want to miss the sunset.
