Guatemala here we come.

it's 6:59 am and I am up, dressed, and ready to go adventuring!

I will have to wait another hour though, as tom is trying to sleep in a bit in order to fend of getting sick.
Both of us have not been feeling great lately.
Yesterday I felt nauseous for a lot of the day, but so far this morning I am doing well.

We were planning to head off to Guatemala yesterday, but plans changed and we will go this morning (wednesday) instead.
One less day at lake Atitlan- but at least we will be feeling well enough to enjoy it.

Yesterday turned out to be full of blessings right here in San Salvador
In the morning tom and I did odd jobs here at the Nacho residence
We are in the process of making them curtains because they have two HUGE sets of windows and during the really hot summer here the sun beats in and it's impossible for them to use the room.
Now, with the beautiful blue curtains in place, there is a soft blue light and it almost feels like we are under the sea!

Tom worked hard in the morning on taking out a broken doorknob and replacing it with a new one- now the room i sleep in had a door that can close which is wonderful news!

In the afternoon tom and I got to go with some friends here (Marty's sister Ashley and her husband Elvis- here are a few photos of them)

to Ashley's orchestra practice. She plays the flute for a symphonic orchestra here in San Salvador and the practice was great! A little bit of West Side Story and some hungarian dances came alive in the basement of the San Salvador school of the arts.
On the 20th they are performinag at the president's house! We wish we were still here for that.




We will try and update during out stint in Guatemala- but if we are not able to then we will post when we get back.

well, as i still have 40 minutes until i have to wake up tom i will put up a post about our beach trip this past weekend.

vamos a la playa!
