El Salvador - Day 10-11 Last Day

 Today is our last day.  We have a flight home at 2AM, so will head for the airport at 10PM.  

Another peaceful morning.  Lily did a run on the beach by herself.  She looked like a baddy.

Before the run...

And after...

Around 9:30 we headed out to meet our guide Pedro  to hike the waterfalls.  We drove to the head of the trail, so Caden, Lily and I rode in the pickup truck.  

The trail was no joke!  Proud that everyone made it and managed a swim at the falls ;)

So many puppy's meandering everywhere in El Salvador and this bike was no different!  The dogs were traversing steep rocks and stairs.  This little one was one of our favorites.  We wished we could bring him home to play with Finn :)

Once back we had enjoyed the pool and reading.  Lily and Caden spent hours at the rocks finding cute little hermit crabs.

I borrowed a new friends surf board for a second attempt.  By the time I walked down to the part of the beach we had lessons before I was wiped!  After a few waves where I had my your know what handed to me, I threw in the towel. Definitely need more lessons.  Sweet Corey met me half way to carry my board back.  I played in the ocean a bit longer with Lily and Caden and then took a 😴

We headed back to Capt. Cooks for dinner.  It is a 1/2 mall walk up the beach.  The food was great once again.  Corey and I had an ice cream afterwards that was pretty average and the kids had crepes.

That's a wrap!  Flight at 2 AM to Texas.  Bu-bye El Salvador!

El Salvador - Day 9

Another zen morning watching the surfers and the sunrise.

We headed to breakfast at our favorite spot Canegue Cafe where you order either salty or sweet.  We ordered 3 of each again :) It did not disappoint!

The girls and I decided to "invest" :) in the El Tunco economy after breakfast with some time getting our nails done and a facial.  The salon owner is a dual citizen, raises in NYC.  She had a pet bunny named Layla that loved people.  And she (Crystal) had a similar mission to working with women in El Salvador to my work in Uganda.  Maybe this will be the new Powerful Means project... :)

Stopped for coffee and crepes before taking the beach back.  Enjoyed the pool for a bit, and putting the finishing touches on my and Lily's synchronized swimming routine, and a little time catching up with my boy :)

Corey's eyes are bad.  Stayed in for dinner and some game playing.  Tomorrow is our last day 😕
