El Salvador social scene

Paradise Fishing Lodge, El Salvador

 

Yesterday was the weekly gathering at Casa L&L. I got to meet the few fellow cruisers in the area, while feasting on BBQ chicken and enjoying an afternoon soaking in the pool. It's times like these that make you wonder why everyone isn't down here doing the same.

 

Of course, today it is back to the heat and humidity on the un-airconditioned boat. For some reason it seems particularly bad today. It does not help that I am virtually alone at the marina - no one to talk, or complain to. Where is everybody?

 

As for the boat, leaving it sitting alone for the past year has not done it any good. The list of things that need attention is just too long to comprehend. It hardly seems practical to try and fix anything right now, knowing that it will be sitting here for at least another 6 months before we possibly try to resume our journey. So for now, I have just done some small, routine maintenance items, run the engine a couple of times. equalized the batteries and such.

 

I head back to Canada in two days.
