Has anyone had experience travelling by bus from Costa Rica to Mexico?

The Lonely Planet or Footprint guides to Central America will discuss
this in detail. Buy one.

I traveled by bus fron San Jose to Mexico City in 1998. I was quite nervous
about crime, so I dressed as a woman! Full make up, flowery sarape, and the
works. I never had to stand, got free tequila, and was treated with respect.
I met some wonderful people!

I did Mexico DF (City) to Nicaragua by bus and return in 2000. No
problem at all, very easy.

I might be going that way this winter, in one direction or the other.
What was the route from DF, and to where in Nicaragua?
How long did the trip take?
What places (if any) did you stay overnight, or longer?
Any places you would recommend, or warn against, for a stopover?

TIA
