On the Oxcart

Nightlife in Costa Rica=tons of us dancing.

Tons of us dancing=tons of us sticking out like a whole bunch of Americans.

We did everything in groups. Very large groups. More or less like a herd of cattle. "On the oxcart," however, refers to something else. There's an actual story that explains the saying, but it refers to someone having a hangover; they're on the oxcart. Fun fact.

A lot of the bars we went to were typically salsa clubs, but by the end of the night a dj was up playing a whole bunch of electronic stuff. I wouldn't say that the nightlife was much different than here, except that every guy was down to dance. Not sway their hips back and forth, but legitimately dance. I could have gotten used to that.

I think I'll miss dancing in large herds the most though.
