After doing a bunch of research on transportation and safety, we decided that riding a dirt bike/motorcycle would be our best bet during our stay in San Juan del Sur. On Monday, we went to a friend's house for Brandon to get crash course on how to ride... He picked it up so quickly! The years of mountain-biking came in handy. I even went for a spin, holding on for dear life, riding in the back, helmet strapped. It was extremely fun and convenient, so we secured a "moto" or motorcycle with dirt tires from a place called El Gringo Rentals (don't judge, it was reasonably priced) in SJDS, right in the heart of the town. The rental, including helmets and surf-board rack, was less than $200 to rent for nine days. If we like it, we'll likely keep it for the duration of our stay.
Every day we reach out to property owners who's places we're interested in scoping out once we get there. The goal is to have a bunch of viewings scheduled our first two days on the ground and be moved in to our "permanent" location by Saturday, May 30. :)
