¡Hola de San Cristobal de las Casas!

Well, I made it. I got on a bus last night at 10pm and woke up in San Cristobal de las Casas. Iwalked to my hostel from the bus station to drop off my backpack, and have been wandering around ever since. I haven´t done much but scope the place out really. I drank some coffee and ate some lunch, walked more, tried to find the Cafe Museo, and now I´m sitting in some restaurant/cyber cafe, and I´m the only one here. It is pretty wierd. But, whatever.

I did find the museo, but for some reason it was only open to the cafe museo cafe (hah!). I stood at the counter for a little while to ask about the museum, but no one ever came. I have plenty of time, I´ll go back. Yeah, Rudy and Annie suggested only 2 days here, but I just really wanted to be on my way last night, I figured how bad will it be? well, they were right, but I had already reserved the room for today and tomorrow...

Good news though, when I was at the bus station, I looked for a bus to Campeche and the OCC line has one straight there. I was going to have to get a bus to backtrack an hour to Tuxtla Gutierrez and from there get another bus to Campeche. But now I can skip all that and leave a couple hours earlier at 6:20. I´m sure the bus goes through Tuxtla Gutierrez, but now I won´t have to worry about getting another bus or sit through the 2.5 hours between the two.

This city is pretty cute. I see lots if places I want to eat. A little chilly. I´m wearing jeans and a fleece and it is comfortable. Tons of tourists, well, not tourists, backpackers. My hostel is pretty cool at first glance. It is all open, and grass, and I get breakfast in the morning. This is my first ever and I feel like I´m in some kind of a club or something.

There is something special about the coffee here too, I think this state is one of the main coffee growing regions (Chiapas). So, thats why there is a coffee museum. I plan on drinking a lot of it while I´m here. : ) I saw a little shop for tours too at the zocalo, I´ll check that out after this and see where I can go.
