HELLL!

The bus ride from Pucallpa to Tingo Mariá, was slow, uncomfortable and difficult at best. There was some excellent scenery, but after we arrived in Tingo Mariá 3 hours late, we were no interested in staying on this hellish ride, sasha's upset stomach sealed the decision.

We stopped at the Hell Hole with the inteniton of getting the next bus that had a toilet to Lima, it turned out to be in the morning. Gil and Anat continued on the slow ride and we checked into a less than inviting hotel.

Anna and I discovered the pure and vibrant hellishness of Tingo María while in search of dinner, crappy roast chicken and Rice.

Lowlights:

No Busses leaving immediately

Anti Gringo christian street meeting

Scary childrens funpark with dangerous rides and menacing equipment

Pollution, dodgy characters

 

Highlights:

Getting off the Bus

Getting back on  Bus
