Day 63
On Sunday March 14, 2010 we started our day with a travel meeting at 7:30 with our wagon master to prepare for our border crossing from El Salvador to Guatemala, ending our great 4 day stay at Tesoro Beach Hotel on the Pacific Ocean and a great swimming pool. Then our guide Jorge Martinez took us on a great (air conditioned) bus to San Salvador (The Savior, Jesus Christ). There we walked to the Metropolitan Cathedral,( burial place of Mens. Oscar Romero, Arch Bishop of El Salvador) and the El Rosarto Church, was very beautiful. We then went shopping at San Magulite where you could buy everything from meat, fish, bread and beautiful flowers. Time for lunch at the National Handicraft Market, food was good and the shopping even better. Everything you could want from earrings to tables and shirts.
On the way back to the beach we stopped for Pupusas (the national food for El Salvador). We also stopped when Ron Reinhardt spotted a delivery truck he sold in California, for sale in El Salvador. Take a break #54 was for sale here. It deserved a picture. We then headed back home to a supermercado at Costa Del Sol for a few items and some ice cream. We learned more about the Myans today. A great learning experience, thanks to Jorge. We arrived back to our rigs about 4:30 after a great day.
