El Salvador!!

IMG_2013
The crossing at Alvarado was time consuming a bit nerve racking and a bit of a hassle, like most. But it was free! Not a dime spent, and speaking of dimes, El Salvador uses American currency; how fun!!
This is the smallest of Central American countries, and before we knew it, we were at the beach and there were waves, We stopped at a few before finding what we wanted at El zonte; cheap camping

The surf wasn't perfect, but good enough for us; just happy to be out there. We stayed here at Raul's for two nights and have headed south to check any number of beaches around the town of La Libertad, where I am typing from right now. We just dropped off four boards at the surf shop for repair and are heading back up north to camp and surf for a few more days. Full of groceries and diesel!
Hotter than Haydes near the coast... but everyone here (except for a hairy weirdo outside) seems nice and we both have good feelings about El Salvador.
Til next time,
GB

Looks like you are having one hell of time! G I got some springs for the runner lined up for free and will one day put them on. The runner is still at the shop and EVERY FUCKING DAY I am tempted to go thrash on it somewhere.
