San Jose to Manuel Antonio

Today I woke up a bit later than usual and then relaxed for a bit. I ate breakfast than got ready to go. I went to the mall and changed my  money to Costa Rican money (colones). I then was then  dropped off at the bus station. The bus took maybe 45 minutes or so to get to San Jose. I then walked to the next bus station as it didn't seem that far. It was maybe a 20 minute walk after I figured out the right direction I needed to walk. I bought the ticket to San Jose and waited for the bus. When the bus came I got on had a pretty uneventful trip. The bus took 3 or so hours and I reached before dark. I then went in search of a hostel in Quepos. Quepos is the town next to Manuel Antonio and offers much cheaper prices for everything. I walked up the hill to Pura Vida hostel (one from lonely planet that was suppose to be cheap). However I didn't think the price was that cheap for what they offered and decided to go look around. I walked backdown the hill and noticed a hostel I had passed that had appeared to be closed but now I saw a guy on the balcony. I asked him if they were a hostel. He said yes. So I asked him if they had rooms. He said yes. So I asked the price and asked to see a room. The price was okay and breakfast was included so I took the room. I was also told that I could get dinner for $4. Cheap here! I opted for this option as I didn't feel like going out and lookin around. Quepos is an okay looking town but I didn't really want to explore. I am a little tired. I think i have reaches my travel limit and need some rest...so to speak. I spent the night relaxing and catching up on  the show Drop Dead Diva since I found a site to stream it for free! Yeah!
