the meaning of time something different here

seems like time is suddenly going fast considering we have been travelling already almost 2 weeks!!! So back to Santa Teresa...we had planned to stay just one night since when we arrived we realized how crazy dusty it was.....like unbelievably dusty to the point where we bought ourselves a bandana to breath through....however, the major selling feature was the pristine beach which was hard to leave. That and we scored a really sweet loft apartment just across from the beach with a deck and full equipped kitchen. So we stayed 3 more nights. It is not cheap to eat out in these parts so we are trying to cook for ourselves as much as possible. 2 super great things about travelling with Danny, just for a start, is 1- he loves to cook and is really good at it and 2- he eats healthy!!!!

On our last day there we rented an ATV which was a blast...the roads were brutally bumpy which was part of the fun, that and the unknown of what awaited us every turn or hill we came across.....only once did I fear for our lives when we hit what could be comparable to hitting black ice at home where there is no control of the steering....alas, Danny pulled through as I hung on tight...we even had enough confidence to rent a car the next day to take us to Samara... We had heard so much about this beach town so there was only one way to find out, plus, it happened to be on our way back up as we are intending to be in Liberia for the 17th when my cousin Tim arrives. Plan is set, car is rented, off we go on another bumpy adventure, no hostel booked for the night and directions were 'just ask along the way, on the way'.....ok....here we go....hasta luego for now!!!!
