Sosua

Expanding our horizons we set off this morning for the town of Sosua (so sue ah). We flagged down a jitney bus, or rather he spotted us walking out the gate of the neighborhood and screeched to a stop, honking the whole time. We agreed to 100 pesos each and joined the other dozen folks in the minivan. Only later did I find we paid double the going rate, or perhaps the "gringo" rate.

After strolling the streets, visiting the beach, and buying a couple used paperbacks, I got a hair cut (250 pesos - $6.53) then we splurged on lunch at one of the dozens of restaurants in this tourist town.

We shopped at the supermarket, which is much nicer the the one in Caberette (cab a ret tay). Bags in hand we waited on the street less than a minute before a jitney pulled over for us. Once in we asked the price and he told us $10 dollars. I vehemently said no and said to let us out. He then said 50 pesos apiece. That's how fast the price dropped from $10 to $2.60. His minivan was missing the side door so I got a couple pictures during the ride home.
