The Rugged Pineapple... in person
This is Jane and yes, its real jungleLast night was the halloween party here at Hostel Galileo and the christening of the Rugged Pineapple Bar. Theres nothing too amazing to post other than there was a good time had by all and I carved my first watermelon. Those things juice like crazy. Tomorrow, I will be traveling to Montezuma for a few days. After that I will be making my way into Santa Teresa which is in an area called Mal Pais. Not bat country... bad country. Once I arrive there, my objectives are to 1. pitch a tent 2. buy a surfboard and 3. contact a hotel about potential work. Its going to be a month of the easy life doing nothing but singing, surfing, and working on the side of possible. wish me luck.
Scott! With some shame I have to admit that I was behind on reading House Goes South... (I didn't understand the reference until fairly recently.) But I'm happy to report that I'm now entirely caught up. Congrats on the confirmation of gainful employment, it all worked out in the end.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you're having a hell of a time and well you should. I've been back to P&V Thai Cafe twice now and on the most recent occasion I was offered the Ghost Chile, supposedly the world's hottest pepper. It was a beautiful experience. More meals should include some sort of test of fortitude.
Sailboat market is as thin as ever. Started to price out plane tickets and sort out the logistics of buying in the Bay Area. I refuse to let you have all the fun. But I am interested in a healthy competition.
I'm really happy for you. Sounds like predominantly smiles in the Southern hemisphere. Keep up the good work.
