Normally the train rolls through stopping just long enough for passengers to disembark and a swathe of new passengers to replace them. This station was unusual, the platform wasn't a throughway, the locomotive came to a halt right at the end of the platform, the train now needs to head out in the opposite direction, that gave us longer to disembark than normal.
The bus system from the terminal was a little confusing, Google maps was not working at all so we had no idea how far out the station was or where it was in relation to the city centre, regardless we decided to walk anyway. I am glad we did, the walk was relatively short and the majority of it was downhill. Our centrally located hotel was 30 seconds walk from the presidential residence, the inauguration happened on the Sunday we were there.
