A fairly relaxed travel day.
I spent the morning walking around town, doing a little shopping. I picked up a hammock and a few other things. Sadly, the crafts here aren't easily transportable, like the silks of Vietnam. The local specialties are hardwood and stoneware.
Ran into a bunch of the people I talked to yesterday (it's not a large town). One of the couples from the hacienda was staying at the same hotel, and the other was taking the same bus. Jose was walking into town as I was walking out, on my way to the bus stop.
The bus ride was pretty calm, which was impressive since we had to ford a stream just outside of town. It rained on and off most of the way back.
