Odchod a Asuncionu/ Leaving Asuncion

---

Vacsinou sa snazime byt na autobusovej stanici pre istotu aspon pol hodiku pred odchodom autobusu. Dnes nam to nejak nevyslo a z hotelu sme odisli asi hodinu pred odchodom nasho spoju. Cesta na miestnu stanicu nam vatsinou trvala okolo pol hodinku a tak sme sa ani velmi neponahlali. Ako naschval nas sofer sa rozhodol chytit kazdu cervenu ktora sa dala. S kazdou pribudajucou minutou sme si boli menej a menej isty ci to stihneme, spoliehali sme sa vsak, ze nas aubobus bude meskat ako obycajne. Nakoniec sme sa na stanicu dostali asi 10 minut po oficialnom odchode, nastastie tam stale bol a tak sme len nalozili veci a hned sa aj pohli. Este ani raz sa nam nestalo aby tu autobus odisiel na cas, 10minutove meskanie je velmi dobry cas, mozno za to mohlo meno tejto spolocnosti - NASA. Pohlad z okna pomerne monotonny - vsetko zelene, pasuci sa dobytok, ludia sediaci v tieni a pijuci terere. Terere je studeny bylinkovy caj, ktory tu pije uplne kazdy o svojej vlastnej termosky a poharika ktory si kazdy nosi stale so sebou - jako yerba mate v Argentine. Zo stanice v Concepcione do nasho hotelu sme si zobrali naozaj neobvykli taxik - vozik tahany konikom. Zvysok dna sme len prelezali pod ventilatorom zapnutym na maximum, teplo a dusno je neskutocne, nic sa nam nechcelo, von nas vyhnal az hlad.


Usually we tried to be on a bus station at least half an hour before the departure of our bus. Today it somehow didnt work out for us and so we left our hotel hour before a departure of our transfer. The journey to a local station usually took us about 30 minutes so we werent worried much. But this time our driver decided to catch as many red lights as possible, it seemed like he is doing it on purpose... With every minutes we were more and more concerned about making it, but we hoped it will be late as usual. Finally we arrived on the station 10 minutes after official departure time, fortunatelly it was still there, so we just put our staff inside and it immediately left. We have never ever seen a bus leaving on time here, so being late just for 10 minutes is nothing, maybe it has got something to do with a name of this company - NASA. View from a window was quite monotone - lots of green, grazing cattle, people sitting in a shade and drinking terere. Terere is a cold herbal tea, which is here drank by everyone, from their own termal flask and cup, which they carry everyone with them - like yerba mate in Argentina. From the bus station i Concepcion to our hotel we took an unusual taxi - chart pulled by a horse. We spend the rest of the day just lying under a airconditioner turned on maximum, hot and humidity are unbelievable, we couldnt do anythng, just in the evening a hunger forced us to go out.
