アンティグア3日目、流石に疲れたのでゆっくりと。 / Antigua Day 3, Really tired from the night bus, relaxing whole day.
Day 191: 2011年1月31日
Flores - Guatemala City to Antigua Guatemala
27,024km
朝5時ごろ目が覚めたら渋滞にハマッてました、バス。また眠りに入り7時前に起きたらグアテマラシティ市内に入ってるとは思うのですが、すごい渋滞。
結局8時前にバスターミナルに到着し、降りたらタクシーの客引き。コレクティーボは周りに見当たりません。
タクシーの運転手が言うには40Qで乗り合いバス停まで行ってやると。まぁ、いいかということで、タクシーに乗り込みました。乗り合いバス停はかなり離れてます。ZONA1にあります。あの古めかしいちょっと派手派手なバスです。始めはワシらを入れて3人しか客がいなかったのですが、順々に客を拾っていき(バス停じゃなくて道で拾っていきます)、ついには満席。二人掛けのシートには3人掛けてそれでも足りなくて立ち乗り客まで出る始末。料金は8Qと格安。タクシーの料金を入れても28Qなのでコレクティーボよりも安く済みました。それにしてもグアテマラシティに向かう車線はずーっと渋滞してます。アンティグアを出て西を向かうときはグアテマラシティを外さないとな。
結局客を拾うのにのろのろ走っていたで(グアテマラシティを抜けるのに)アンティグアに着いたころには9時を回ってました。ペンション田代に戻りチェックイン。また3階の屋根裏部屋にしました。
朝飯はメルカドでタマレス。甘いタマレスが以外に美味いです。宿に戻りGSのアクセルワイヤーをチャック。切れてないですが、スロットルからキーキー音がします。まぁ、さしあたり問題はなさそうなので、あまりイジらずにそのままにしました。もし何かあったらコスタリカかパナマで修理ですね。
銀行にドルを換金に行き、昼飯の食材を買って宿で昼飯。ナオコさんとちょっとお話をしました。
夕方までブログのアップ。夕飯はオットギ。夜は慶くん(O阪外語大学の学生さん。スペイン語専修でジャズピアニスト)とナオコさん(アンティグアにスペイン語学留学中)と歓談。みなさん色々な人生を歩んでますね。明日は出発の準備とルートを決めます。今年ももう1ヵ月経ってしまいました・・・。

Flores - Guatemala City to Antigua Guatemala
27,024km
Around 5am when I woke up, we were caught in a heavy traffic. It looked like we were the frindge of Guatemala City already. I went back to sleep and when I woke up again around 7am, we were in Guatemala City but caught in a heavy traffic still. The traffic of this city is terrible...
It was around 8am we arrived the bus terminal. We could not see any Collectivo around and those taxi drivers came to us and asked us where we were going. We negociated with one of them to take us a bus stop for Antigua. He said 40Q for 2 people.
The bus stop was a bit far away from the bus terminal. It is in ZONA 1. The bus is that old bus I have been seeing since entered in Guatemala. I wanted to ride on it, so I was lucky. When we left the bus stop, there were only 3 passengers including us, but the bus was picking us passengers on the way and it became really full by the time leaving Guatemala City. Each seat was for 2 people but 3 people sat on every seat and there were passengers standing. The cost was 8Q, so even including the cost of the taxi, we paid less than if we took a Collectivo.
We were heading to Antigua, and seeing the opposite lane. The way to Guatemala City was full of cars and bus, terrible, terrible traffic. When we leave Antigua, we should avoid Guatmala City.
It took more than 1 hour to get to Antigua. We went back to Pension Tashiro and checked in again. Waled to the Market and had Tamales as breakfast. The sweet Tamale was quite good and I liked it. It cost 5Q each.
I checked the accerator cable of my GS and there was no wear. The noise is coming from, probably, a throttle valve. As I cannot do anything with it, I decided to leave it. If anything goes wrong, I will get it serviced in Costa Rica or Panama.
I went to a bank to exchange another US$50 to Qs. It became 388Qs. Back to th hostel and I updated my blog and chat with Naoko, who is studying Spanish here in Antigua.
In the evening, Kei, Naoko and I talked till late. Everyone is having an interesting life.
