I have been very busy this week hence the lack of blog posts. I have been to Nicaragua and Honduras for the week. Three days in Nicaragua and seven days in Honduras.
This past weekend I took a trip to San Miguel El Salvador. The trip took about 4 hours and was uneventful. Just for comparison, we had to stop for gas and paid $4.67 a US gallon which works out to about $1.30 per liter in Canadian funds. This was quite cheap gas. I have seen ‘normal’ gas at up to $4.78 a gallon and diesel at $4.99 a gallon. The smaller towns and villages have higher prices while in San Salavador itself it is quite cheap.
Today I traveled for nearly 4 hours in the back of Isabel’s pick up truck to a town called San Miguel near the border with Honduras. This is not the subject of this post but maybe a later one if there is anything to write about. Today’s topic is the Chalate Country Club.
Well I experienced my first real tropical rain storm Wednesday (as I am writing this). I am currently sitting at the main dining table with a candle on either side of me as there is no power, the cell phone doesn’t work and, of course, there is no TV either.
