update from San Cristobal de las Casas!!!

This grammer will be bad because I dont know how to use this keyboard. Not all the correct punctuation marks.

OK, so I was totally wrong on my first impression and I love this town. I went on a tour today to a giant cave, a waterfall, and some lakes. The last stop on the tour was 2 hours away from town, and I was looking across the lake at Guatemala. It was warm and sunny all morning, and then when we got to teh lakes, it started to rain and it was so foggy you could barely see 10 feet in front of you. So we were all laughing because we couldnt actually see the lakes. Oh well. I see lakes all the time. The cave and waterfall were really cool.

Friday I was a little quick to judge. I spent the day walking everywhere looking around. So, I got my bearings, and around 7 I went back to the hostel to crash, but, there were 2 girls talking in the dorm, one from scotland and one from alaska. the scottish girl and I ended up going out for a few drinks, and it turned into dancing until around 3 or 4 am...I lost track. It was awesome. We met people from France, Britian, New Zealand and Australia. Lots of Aussies here.

Now that I am around other people, I am laughing at them travelling together. I keep seeing the fights. My favorite so far was with 2 older British people, walking past me, the woman says "Throwing a fit?? Youre the one throwing a fit..." and another good one was at the zocalo, and it looks like a 20 something guy and his mom (??) and hes carrying both backpacks, and shes behind him nagging him, I think telling him she can carry her own pack or something, and he THROWS it to the ground and doesnt even look back, and keeps storming along. I smiled at that one.

Tomorrow at 9 Im going on another tour to the Cañon. So far everyone I see has done it or wants to. I get back here at 2:30, and then I have to do a tiny bit of shopping. The Alaskan girl found the coolest store today that makes their own shirts, and she got an anti-multinational one of McDeath, and then it says something about forcing out gringo businesses. I want to get one. She said there were more too.

Im still debating on when to leave. I thought the 6:30 bus stright to Campeche would be awesome, but, now that I think about it, it is roughly a 12 hour ride. So, Id be getting into the station at 6am. And the bus to Xpujil isnt until 12 and 2. So, if I wait until 8 for ADO, Id have the layover and get into Campeche in the best case scenario at 11 or 11:30, and try and catch the 12 or 2 bus... and then I could hang around here a little more too... I dont know what Ill do yet. But, Im having the time of my life. The people at the hostel are so cool I cant stand it. The Alaskan girl came from Guatemala the same day I got here, and she took a boat and 5 chicken busses here. I feel like a wussy on ADO now. Im already thinking about staying at NAP for another year so I can have another 2 month vacation, and do S. America next.
