Tuesday morning, things are running

The la Ropa combis started running at their regular time of 6;15 and all appears normal now at 7:30am

Saw the normal number of taxis go by too.

We were thinking of spending today at Playa Larga, but maybe delaying a day would be safer/smarter. Wouldn't want to be stranded out there.

It's a wonderful place to be stranded! But actually you could walk back to La Ropa in about 2 hours or less at a leisurely pace along the coast, crossing over at Playa La Pedregosa where the arroyo meets the beach.

Unfortunately, not everyone is mobile. Walking home from Playa Larga....or even from La Madera or La Ropa....is simply impossible for many folks.
Around 2 pm, friends told us there were no combis or taxis down at the south end of La Ropa, near Rossy's. These friends walked up to the sitio near Los Delfines and said there were lots of cabs there....but when we went up there a half hour later, there was only 1 taxi, luckily for us. We saw no La Ropa combis. I asked the taxi driver where all the taxis were, and he replied "Party."

Public transportation is an absolute, irreplaceable necessity for many folks. If these clowns are going to suspend or eliminate service, the least they could do is provide advance public notice. So, tomorrow? Who the hell knows?
