lago ypacarai
i tried hard, boy how i tried, to find this lake. in theory it's simple, two buses and you're there. last week i attempted it and ended up missing the bus terminal. twice. when i finally arrived i couldn't find where to get the next bus and ended up returning as a failure to the sanctuary of the hostel. yesterday i tried again, and this time managed to arrive without too many issues. the problems occurred on the return leg when once again the bus i took missed the terminal. not for the first time i was the last person on the bus, and had to explain to the bus driver that i wanted to get to the bus station. i could barely understand a word he said back to me - the only ones that got through were aca which means here and lejos which means far away - not a good combination. a change of bus later and i got dropped off on the edge of the centre and had to walk back to the hostel. i must have spent at least 4 times the amount of time either waiting for or riding on a bus compared to the time i spent at the lake - so no matter how this photo turned out it was always going to get uploaded.
