Clearing the way in El Salvador

Today we left Tierra Blanca inspite of the hardships of living there, I think everyone felt a sense of separation. Jungle life was hot, noisy at night and filled with challenging travel situations (see video). We travelled to San Salvador and stopped for lunch at the pupusa strip mall. Twenty pupusa stands in a row next to the road selling the same thing and with identical signage. I am not sure how they differentiate themselves, but Sr Fran found the best place. They were very good.

We also met at the University of Central America, I will let others speak to the educational sessions of the afternoon and evening.

I feel in the "lap of luxury" with a bathroom and shower in the building. Still no hot water, but the temperature and humidity are much more tolerable. It may be we are so acclimated to the jungle anything would feel better.

This was another busy day. We are winding down. Tomorrow is sightseeing and buying gifts. This is a great group of people and I have enjoyed them immensely. We have spent nearly every waking hour working on or thinking about very difficult and sometimes painful issues. This has been a great team with which to share that experience.
