Bus debaucle

Another day another adventure.

With Eric's arriving yesterday, we decided to go to the airport to pick him up. Huatulco is around 2 hours away, but driving seemed.....risky. Our VW is great, just not all that highway worthy. so off to the Bus.

The "intermediate bus" was 40 Pesos (about $3.20) but it takes about 3 hours to get there as it stops where ever people stick out their thumbs. So we chose the "Primera" bus. Premera is a whopping 92 Pesos ($7.20) and takes 2 hours, HOWEVER, we were not aware that it doesn't stop at the airport it goes into La Crucecita! La Crucecita is about 15 minutes past the airport. so we hired a taxi at the bus depot to take us back to the aeroporto. We really thought we would be late and poor Eric would be freaking out, but no, he was the last person to exit the airport.

Now there is a bus that goes back to Puerto but with the day's events, we decided to hire the same taxi from the bus depot to take us to PE. He was happy to do it (600 Pesos, $48.00), but he was forced to park his taxi outside of the airport because he is not officially authorized for the airport. The security guard was not happy with him:)

We finally made it to our house with Eric in tow. He'll take the intermediate bus to the airport next Tuesday, let's hope  he has an easier time of it!

Stay tuned for some pictures, we finally have a card reader and will be downloading when we aren't busy at the beach :)

Hasta la vista!
