Christmas

Mike and Sarah were supposed to arrive at 2, and then be at the hostel by 4ish. So, with the day to kill before that I ventured out to the common area of the hostel, were I met a guy names Solomon, and two Israelis. We all laughed how only the Jews were out on Christmas, and then Solomon and I went to grab some food. He was a really interesting fella, he was hitch-hiking all over central America, and had done much hitch-hiking in the past. We grabbed a bite, and then went back to the hostel where we chatted with the Israelis for several hours.

At around 3 Sarah showed up, and informed me that Mike had missed the flight. so, not knowing what to do Sarah and I ventured out to try to find an Internet cafe that would be open. Unfortunately we found nothing for a while, and were just wondering empty streets. Eventually we found one, and discovered that Mike had gotten on a 4:30fight, and would arrive around midnight. From there Sarah and myself went to dinner, where we met two other people from our hostel. A guy named Aaron, and his Wife who's name I don´t remember, but who was from Japan. We had dinner with them, and since it was the only open place in town Solomon eventually wondered in and joined us. After this we went to the liqueur store, and bought a few six packs, and then went back to the hostel.

At the hostel we played poker and were joined by a French man named Charles. We played for a while, and eventually Mike showed up. We finished the game, and then went to bed.
