Suchitoto, El Salvador

Today I went to Suchitoto a small colonial town located at about 50 km from San Salvador. It is also more or less on the shore of the lake Suchitlan ( you still have to walk 1 km to arrive on the shore of the lake). I also walked to the Tercios waterfall, which would have been nicer with water but was still nice....

To sum up it was a really nice day in a nice town, though a bit too sunny... I know I'm complaining about the sun, but just because my forehead burned again :(

Laguna Verda, Apaneca, El Salvador

Today I walked to the Laguna Verde which is located 4 km away from the little town of Apaneca that I had visited the first time I went to El Salvador.

It was a nice walk up there and it gave a nice view on the whole valley. The laguna was nothing special and I would even say that it was a bit dirty (some garbage)...

Playa San Diego, El Salvador

After Nicaragua, I decided that I would go back to El Salvador that I really liked when I stayed for Christmas. So from Granada I went straight to Salvador which took me about 14 hours and 7 different buses and 2 border crossings. But with luck I arrived in San Salvador on Sunday evening as planned.

On Monday I went to the playa San Diego where I stayed for a few days. I was in an amazing hostel ( Hostel El Roble ). The owners were really nice and the place was really nice and good to chill out.

Obviously as it was only 4 blocks from the Pacific, I went to the beach and take a swim in the ocean. The beach was just huge and there was just no one. It was really nice and enjoyable.

Granada, Nicaragua

After having idle around in my hostel in David, Panama, spend a cold night in San Jose, Costa Rica and spend way too much time at a fucking border with only one officer for all the people entering Nicaragua, I finally arrived in Granada in Nicaragua on the shore of the Lake Nicaragua or Cocibolca....

It is a beautiful colonial town. Granada has been disputing with Leon (see one of the previous post) to be the major city in Nicaragua... To avoid any problem, the Government decided to establish the capital in Managua.

Though Granada is really really beautiful, there are two major issues : It's way too touristic and it's way too dirty....
