Ahh El Salvador, I have long awaited to stand in your country.
What?
Come again?
What do you mean our backpacks are still in Guatemala?!?!?
It had already been a long day. Having shelled out for a tourist bus, Kyle was already on edge. And now, when we get off the bus in Santa Ana, we find that our bags were taken off at the border, and never put back on.
The next bus will bring them, the bus driver tells us. One problem. We have to continue on to San Salvador to pick them up.
Yikes.
16 July 2009I can't believe it's been 40 days already. And now four countries. I am sitting here at Playa El Tunco in El Salvador and it's amazing. Two pelicans soar just above the saves of the Pacific, and I realize how much I've missed the ocean.
These are the last two pictures I took before my camera burying itself in the sand, never to be used again.
I am considering taking some surf lessons here. I feel a need to do more adventurous, outdoor activities, and I've never surfed before. I think that it would be exciting.
The limonadas here are ridiculously delicious. I think that only those at Capitan Tortuga's in Flores are better. Just sitting here in this oceanside restaurant sipping this frozen piece of heaven is amazing. I am so happy here. It's a true surfer's paradise. Everyone is so laid back. There's no rush. It's a refreshing change of pace; to do nothing but walk the beach, eat fish, and sip limonadas.
What a fabulous introduction to El Salvador. I'm excited to see what else this country has in store for us, but for now, I am more than content to do absolutely nothing.
