We arrive at Montara Lighthouse Hostel at about 16:00. Lydia welcomes us. We get a co-ed dorm (for 4 persons; we're the only ones in it tonight). There are a some other guests in the hostel. About 8.



The hostel is beautifully situated on a rock overlooking the ocean, in a couple of buildings, adjacent to a picturesque lighthouse. (see picture wv: 20070209 020.jpg)
