We checked in and then had to find a shop to get supplies for the next day (13 hours on a bus, not good without nibbly bits).

It has a very different vibe to the rest of Guatemala, very Caribbean and laid back, well actually that&#8217;s not unlike the rest of Guatemala. I wondered around for a couple of hours, sweltering in the midday heat and then returned with the lancha, picking up a few other guests along the way and went ...

... Even though its been about eight or nine years I figured it would all come back to me. Well let me tell you, the knowledge is still there, but the physical fitness is not. At all.

So since the surf was a little too big, there wasnt a great selection of restaurants, and there wasnt much else to do in Playa El Zonte we decide to move over to Playa Tunco, which is a nice little ...

... a kitchen and the shaman's house. the houses were built using adobe, wood and rope. Even the rope that tied the wood together is still preserved. The only evidence that remains of the kitchen is the entryway and the three stones where the fire was.
