San Jose - lots of shoe shops and a hostel with a mechanical bull!

We had arranged to meet Lenny & Catherine again before they left Central America, so hooked up with them at Hostel Pangea, which advertises itself as the only hostel in the world with a mechanical bull.


The bull wasn´t working, but that didn´t stop Lenny & Dave seeking out a photo opportunity after a few beers.




San Jose isn´t as bad as some of the other Central American capitals we´ve been to. We thought it would be alot worse, but certainly not a city you´d visit unless you had to. This town has bars on all the windows and a shoe shop on every street corner. Our original plan was to nip through here en route to the Caribbean coast and head to Panama from there, but the weather´s so pants we´re going to fast track our way to Panama City and try to catch the first boat we can headed for Colombia. Hopefully it´ll all work out and we´ll start round two of this adventure in Colombia sometime next week. Bring it on!!
