Zipolite 2

The first week of our stay wasn't enough so we stayed an extra week once Bryan and Maggie arrived.  We spent most of the week meeting lots of people, lazing on the beach and swimming in the waves.
One of the swinging beds we lounged on in the afternoons for the price of a beer - and came with that beer!
For valentines day we spent the day together on the beach and didn't do any cooking.We had chow mein for lunch that was just spagetti with a nice sauce and chicken at 'a nice place on the beach' which really is a nice place on the beach. For dinner we went to a pizza place and had a vegetarian pizza and the best shrimp and garlic pizza ever! and we took shots of mezcal. Spent the evening at the raggae bar by the fire.



Had to move from where we were staying because they were about to start construction. Moved into a room next door that a guy was renting out. Paid 115 pesos a night for seven nights. After that we had to move again because the week was up and the room was going to be rented out to another couple. Then we went to the hostel which finally had a room open. Paid 80 pesos. Wished we had stayed our entire stay at the hostel. Super cool people and there were puppies!! It even included free use of their boogie board. Rad.

Rigel lost his glasses in the ocean so we got them replaced in Pochutla. But a couple days later they started falling apart so we took them back to be repaired. In trying to fix them they scratched the lens. Made an appointment to redo the lens but they never opened their doors. The wife who seemed to just do the sales was trying to repair the glasses and had no idea how to use pliers on them without damaging them. Unfortunately, to wait a day for them to open would mean another $50... So instead we decided to makd our way to Oaxaca by bus so we didn't have to put ourselves through agony climbing the mountains. Here we come chocolate!!
