San Salvador
City bound.
San Salvador was where I first arrived but got picked up and headed straight for the ocean. Therefore, I never even saw the main city of the country. Better yet, this time, I had owner of the hostel here, and two local girls who live here to show us a good time. Where we went, I still don't actually know. I say this b/c for the 24 hours I was here, it was all Spanish and no English. Which made it fun, but equally frustrating.
We heading from downtown San Salvador directly up windy roads to the top of some mountain park. Mainly to kill time but we walked up and down these steep trails that overall, looked over the whole entire country. If I didn't know any better I may have been looking over Guatemala or Honduras. That view was incredible. We finished and hung out in the park for a while. Two gringos and two very attractive local girls draws attention. The local food stand slowly DJ'd there way into playing a random "Now 15" music jam CD. I mean, were talking 7th grade asking the girl to dance jams...You know what I'm talking about. Which was pretty funny.
We left, and headed back into town for food and drinks. We made our way to a semi-backpacker district (though not too many backpackers were seen, but a area lonely planet recommends).
Overall the city is spread out with semi-tall buildings, no skyscrapers. This is because of constant earthquakes. The city is surrounded by large mountains and green lush trees (only Ian would know the names of)
