18/12/09 - day 9.
got up late (10ish), strolled into town to see if there was anything to do in David. there wasn´t. i went to the park for a bit of a wander but it was so hot i didnt last long.
i had been told by many a backpacker that my next intended destination (bocas del toro) was a rain fest and was gonna be like that for a while so i went online to see about changing my route a bit. was easier than i thought given its xmas time, and i booked myself a hostel in costa rica, on the pacific coast as opposed to the wet caribbean side.
chatted to an older dude from houston who´s been travelling for 20 years and working drilling for oil. he was so bored by David he said he´d be going to "the titty bar where they got beer for a buck later and that he "couldn´t say no to that!" Dirty old man. he reminded me of the character ´bulldog´ from sitcom ´frasier´ except his accent was like the cartoon character Yosemite Sam.
i was looking forward to leaving David, its been a nice break doing not very much but another day and i would be bored. whiled away the rest of the day in the garden sweating and finishing my book.
