God´s Light


The other day when we came home from Pochulta, after going thru the blockade, and was a little blue having called family but wasn´t able to get thru to Webby, and was a bit frustrated and blue...and was wondering where we are going to live...and we went to walk on the beach and there was beautiful God´s light. I haven´t seen it here since we´ve been here. So it was really special and really cheered me up.

camineta & taxi blockade




So when we were leaving town the other day there was some kind of issue between the caminetas and taxis. It´s really hard to get from Zipolite to Pochutla and back.


Caminetas take a long time and go the long way thru mazunte, san augustinillio and ventanilla and head back to Pochutla...and your riding in the back of a truck, on a hard little bench...and it can get very full and it´s a real experience. We´ve done it several times as it´s cheaper than the collectivos/taxis but mainly because Angel throws up in the collectivos.




And there is no direct collectivo from Pochutla to Zipolite so you get really screwed. That happened to us once and Angel was crying and the taxi only took us to the crossroads and they told us another collectivos would take us but it was a lie and they wanted us to pay a bunch and then luckily we caught a collectivo...but it´s really frigging frustrating.


So anyways there was some kind of blockade and tomorrow apparently there is no service at all because of gas prices...


Apparently someone says it has to do with tourist and they want to charge the tourist more, but they really need to work on a more efficient and fair system for all.


I mean we sure don´t have alot of money to spend it´s been really tough this time getting around compared to when I came and i was single and now everything is just more expensive especially food, and you can´t easily come to Pochutla to get a better deal as it´s such a huge frigging hassle.
