Google Maps, You Done Us Dirty. (Mexico)

Yesterday we woke up in Oaxaca city and had another yum breakfast at the hostel. I ran around town getting a couple pictures.



Then we loaded up the car to head to Puerto Escondido, which the boys really wanted to go to to surf a bit. According to google the trip was supposed to take 3 hours, so we were happy and relaxed about the drive...oh google! The trip ended up taking 6 hours! Grr. We also almost lost our lives when an 18 wheeler came charging towards us around a blind turn in the mountains! Mountain driving is the pits, because it's stressful. You can't just relax and sleep or anything. Anyway, we finally arrived here and were pretty happy with the hostel. Everyone is super chill, nobody wears actual clothing, and surprisingly, I'm not the only person who can't surf well! We promptly grabbed ice cold beers as we were sweaty beasts. Then we went to a restaurant around the corner called Pizza Time, which was delicious and cheap! We then went back to the hostel and hung out with everybody and drank. Everyone went to a bar on the beach, so we joined. It was almost entirely foreigners, but I did spot a local and force him to dance with me, sufficiently satisfying my need to salsa! I have no idea what time it was when we got back, but we all just headed to bed to wake up early and hit the water!
