Suchitoto El Salvador, Los Almendros de San Lorenzo (hotel)
Good morning! I've only been up for a few minutes and cannot wait to explore the town more. The hotel we are at is absolutely amazing. It's hard to explain, but something from the 1800's and its beautiful! I am going to enjoy my coffee and do some reading. I'll post more later. :)

First morning coffee in surfer village of El Tunco
Buenos Dias! Halie is teaching me Spanish and how to use my iPhone, Facebook etc. I might have a snapchat account before this trip is over.
We landed in San Salvador at about 6:30 last night. Just before dark and it get dark quickly here. Carlos from the Papaya lodge in El Tunco emailed us in Guatemala while we were waiting for our plane and sent a friend to pick us up. By the way the Guatamala airport and city around it is unbelievable! Anyway, it took about 40 minutes to get to the lodge. Everyone was super nice. We have a very basic $20 room which comes with a fan, but we are right on the main strip next to the beach. We went to Monkey Lala for dinner. Up on a balcony overhanging the beach. Awesome lighting storm and winds began to come in. Once the rain let up we headed back towards our place and stopped at Munchies club for awhile. Seems like every little tiki joint had a sub woofer and dance music playing. We were out until 9:30 way past my bedtime. We showered (cold water only) and went to bed. Thank goodness for my nose noise canceling headphones, the party outside our door got louder as the night went on. It seems the music stopped and the roosters began to crow. That and the fresh bread guy on his bike squeezing his little bike horn. We just had the best breakfast ever and a cup of coffee. Not sure what we will do today, but it is going to be a very sunny happy day!

I After missing our connection in Miami,
they said we could not make it here today. Well we did (after 3 flights) and we are in El Tunco on the beach for the weekend. This place is definitely the party scene for surfers etc. Monday we head inland to the small villages.
