Traveling by bus
I needed to go to a far away city from Lima, to have a surf time. In spite of the cheap prices that low-cost air carrier companies offer these days, surprisely, this time I decided to travel by bus, despite it promise to be a long 20 hours trip.
Going to the bus terminal station took me 15 minutes, as opposed to 1 hour to the airport.
Also, I can arrive 30 minutes before the bus departs, whereas I must arrive to the airport no less than 2 hours before the fly departs. Moreover, when going by bus, I can left the bus terminal station at my destination just 10 minutes after the bus arrives, and a taxi could drop me at the hotel in 5 minutes. On the other hand, leaving the target airport takes no less than 30 minutes, without taking into account that a van may take 2 hours and a half to go across the 200 kilometers that separate the airport from my hotel, and when the van finally arrives, is almost at the sunset, so I have to wait for the next day to ride some waves. Going by bus, I have a confortable seat that can be a 180° bed, two power outlets available, so I can use one to connect my laptop and write this essay, and the other to charge my cell phone.
By the time I´m writting this, the hostess is going to serve the breakfast, and only two hours from my destination. It´s a bit cloudy, and according to the forecast, waves are pretty big.
