I cannot remember the last time I had a more enjoyable vacation! Last week we all went to Sunzal El Salvador, a small village near La Libertad. It is really small but has one of the best surfing beaches in the world (top ten… according to the pamphlet they gave us). Anyways we found this sweet hotel for $8.66 a night! It was so nice for eight bucks!! We had a balcony right over a river and about 50 yards or so from the beach. The owner has this monkey who’s always coming around.
Most of my time was spent chilling out in hammocks they had all around the hotel, eating at these amazingly good and cheap restaurants, and lying on the beach! I also rented a surf board and learned how to surf!! Oh man it was so much fun; I got up my first try with out any lessons or anything! I think that I definitely want to go to law school in Southern California now. I could get used to surfing on a regular basis!!
While there we also became very good friends with some Europeans who were at the same hotel. There was Paul from England, Paul from Germany, and Sandro and Sebastian from Switzerland. On multiple occasions during the week we sat around with them at our hotel, at restaurants, and on the beach talking about a great deal of different topics; religion, politics, and life in general. We spent the nights playing English card games, Mafia, a game they thoroughly enjoyed, and jamming out to a cheap little guitar Matt (another student with us) bought! I had some really cool conversations with them, definitely broadened my perspective on a lot of things. I don’t think they had met many Mormons in their life, but I think we left a pretty good impression on them. I really enjoyed how open minded they were about whatever it is we talked about, opened minded but at the same time frank; which is very refreshing.
Also while in El Salvador I shaved… I’ve been growing my beard out for the last two months. Ok Mom, calm down! It was for my personal safety, I mean if you have the choice to rob two people and one of them has a big ol’ beard and the other is abiding by BYU’s grooming standards, who are you going to rob? Exactly! I’m glad to see we see eye to eye on this. I’m putting up pics on facebook so if anyone’s interested in seeing it, just have Rachel or Jessica sign on and show you.
