Ken, Jenna and I returned last night from an incredible mini vacation. We, along with two other families, drove 3 1/2 hours to El Cuco, which means "crazy town." We were lucky to go. Since the "coup" there have been multiple travel restrictions, especially on the weekends. This past weekend was the first weekend the travel restriction (to drive) was lifted so we were thrilled. El Salvador certainly is a beautiful country and the beach was awesome!!!!!!. It is very clean, which was a nice change of scenery from the trash you usually see on the sides of the roads in Honduras. We stayed in a 4 bedroom house with a private pool/hot tub on the beach. It was very relaxing for all of us. As some of you may know, the country uses US dollars as it's currency. Ken and I have decided that we will most certainly make another trip before out tour is over. BTW, the first photo you see is of the river that splits Honduras and El Salvador so you have to cross a bridge to enter.
Jenna had a great time with her buddies and still proves to be an excellent traveler. She loved the water!!!!!!! Ken also learned how to surf -he did real well and picked it up very fast - which is no surprise to me. I guess I will be buying him a surf board in the future:) Here are some photos from our trip. Ken will be traveling to Puerto Rico for work sometime this month. When he returns we plan to go to Copan to see the Mayan Ruins or Antigua, Guatemala. We only have 10 more months before we leave so we want to take full advantage of our time here to do some adventures :)
