I went to find out if the museums in Sao Borja were open today, and of course, they were not. I bought some chocolate, coconut water, a watermelon and beers to restock Miguels fridge. When I came back it started pouring. Miguel called the bus station to ask when was the next bus to Sao Miguel de Missoes and it was not leaving until 4 p.m. So, we waited in the rain, snoozing on his floor.
I got off the bus with two other people and we waited for the local bus
. Someone called the bus company and they aid there was no bus coming. A guy named Renaldo said his friend would pick him up and he invited me to come along. I told him I wanted to see the sound and light show at the mission and he promised to guide me there.
When his friend finally came, he took me with his girlfriend to the light show. My guide book said it was translated into English, but it wasn't (minus one for Rough Guide). So I watched some coloured spotlights shine on an old building for an hour.
After the show, Renaldo even brought me to the amazing hostel down the street. I checked in and said goodbye. There was a beautiful pool with terracotta tiles, so I took a midnight dip and fell asleep quickly in my empty dorm.
