Rain in Dominical

The thunder in Costa Rica has got to be three times as loud as anywhere else. It died down a bit when I went to sleep, so I was out like a celebrity popping Ambien. In the morning I got on a bus back to Quepos, where the bus station is and hooked back up with Hugh, the Aussie. We rode the hour long bus to Dominical and checked into a hostel. For lunch we had some amazing sandwiches at a place up the road, didn't feel real upset about paying the $10 for lunch. Tried to go surfing right away, but the waves were all washed out so we'll get out tomorrow morning instead. The guy we rented from is a transplant from California and had a bunch of little German shepherd pups running around, they were a riot.

Anyways, we ended up going for a walk chasing down crabs on the beach, but a storm rolled through and we got caught in the rain. It was really refreshing though, and not freezing cold like back home. Eventually we made it back to the hostel and played dominoes to pass the time. We went back into town for dinner and I had my first ice cream down here. Boy did I miss it, I've got to stop depriving myself of the sweet stuff. Going to get up early tomorrow for a surf session, hopefully we wake up at a reasonable time.
