Courtyard Marriott San Salvado San Salvador

... the coolest nightspot in San Salvador but we did get there a bit early and it was a weeknight so I can understand why the place was empty. We would have stayed longer but one of the other guys wanted to go back to the hotsel to use the internet to contact his girlfriend so we called it a night.

The next day I caught several chicken buses down to La Liberdad on the coast and caught up with Cal. One thing I love about buses in El Salvador is that they cost ...

... with it a wonderful and vibrant market. Now you can stay in the heart of Santa Fe, shop at the market for fresh food, and prepare your own meal if you stay at a short term rental unit like the units that are available at El Corazon De Santa Fe for example. Whether your interest is the opera, arts, good food or simply the great outdoors, a visit to Santa Fe is one you will not regret.

... right downtown. No fuss, no muss with traffic or parking.

My first stop was the Georgia O'Keefe Museum. Don’t you know it, my timing was terrible. About half of the exhibit area was closed. They change the exhibits every four months and now is one of those times. I enjoyed what I was able to see and bought another print to have framed when I get home.

Then the New Mexico Museum of Art was closed ...

When I left Chinle this morning heading north the highway was a long ribbon of black extending to the horizon. Things looked so near, yet they were so far. I passed more of the horse and cow caution signs and they were accurate. I passed both grazing on the shoulders of the highway. I was very cautious passing them.

I was headed to the Four Corners Monument. Yeah, I know it was ...

... formed canyon water slide, however we forgot it was a Saturday and the queue for the park was back into the road. Undeterred we stopped down the road and climbed down to a different part of the canyon. It was beautiful, secluded with a nice stream and pool and we were all by ourselves, the water was freezing though so our private lagoon was a short stop.

Next we powered onto Holbroke because....we were to tired to drive on to Santa ...

... the most beautiful drive getting there! It completely confirmed that El Salvador is the most beautiful place I have ever been! The family lives on top of a mountain, and there are only about 10 families in the town. (They don´t actually live in San Juan Opico, they´re not incorporated, so they just use San Juan Opico has a reference.) It is really expensive for Cruz and her children to come in to San Salvador because there are no buses that run between the ...

... hoping that the food doesn't slide through me faster than a New York subway train. So far so good though a few hours later still. Cafe New York Deli turned out to be a delicious experience that will make San Salvador memorable.

So let me describe this city as best I can. Take a normal city grid of square blocks and place it in a valley surrounded by green mountains. Now drop in dozens and dozens of black exhaust belching battered school buses that serve ...

After lunch we went upstairs, where the women were working on trying to figure out how to make purses to sell, until the sewing machine blew out...nothing new, a normal set back when you are constantly working with things that are second hand. Hopefully we'll be able to get it fixed? Any one know of a cheap way to ship a sewing machine?

Tomorrow I'm going to work in the milpa picking corn...I hope I can reach it! :)

... English (and some might even include that). The only word he understood was Juan's name, and I didn't do any better with what he was saying. It was a short call. Following the downburst and as the sky darkened again, this time due to the setting sun, we came to a stop at an intersection where some houses and buildings began, and the driver said something that included the words Santa Ana. One lady got off, without retrieving any luggage from the luggage storage underneath. This ...
