i had no need for another day, so yesterday i took a bus to rio dulce and spent the night in a room on stilts at the edge of the river, following a huge buffet which cost $7.
today, i have arrived in livingston, a garifuna settlement (look it up), where i will stay for a week or so, taking spanish lessons from a mexican woman i met on the bus from tikal, who owns a restaurant here. my first class tomorrow entails a trip to the nearby port town to buy stuff. should be fun.
