Montezuma by any other name is...Moctezuma.

Today we got the heck out of San Jose. We took a taxi to the bus station, took a bus to the Puntarenas, where we got another taxi to the ferry terminal. From there we got the ferry to Paquena, and a bus to Cobano, and ANOTHER bus here to Montezuma. We had the hardest time finding this place on any map online, until finally we found it by accident, by the name of Moctezuma... Its also not in most of the guidebooks I've looked at. Just one. This town has remained mysterious, so when we got here we had no idea what to expect and no place to stay. Turns out its a cute little tiny town, at least by night. Haven't seen it by day yet, but so far its wonderful. Lots of christmas lights lining restaurants. The one we chose tonight plays movies on a projector screen. Right now "Sactum" is on. The latest James Cameron movie. They also have free wifi after a minimum $6 meal, which is easy to do in these touristy little towns. So far nothing is super cheap, but we've gotten a good deal on a room for tonight. We'll see what tomorrow brings. Maybe we're on to Mal Pais, maybe we'll stay here....You'll know when we know.

This is not our route...we took a ferry across the gulf, but the rest is pretty close.
