Today was the first day off from Clinic. Ironically, El Salvador celebrated Labor Day today. The Lions sponsored a luncheon for us, and also hired a local Salsa Band to play for us. The food was outstanding and the dancing was a lot of fun. It proved again that two separate cultures can come together.
After lunch, the team went to the Beach. El Salvador is bordered by the Pacific Ocean and our Hotel is only two blocks from the water. As we walked to the Beach, we actually found the Rooster who has been waking us up at 4:00 am every morning. It's amazing to experience mother-nature first-hand.
The Beach was a surprise to most of us. The sand was actually a grayish black color, probably due to the fact El Salvador has many volcano's. After the trip to the Beach, we came back to the Hotel and had dinner. After dinner we socialized together. Tomorrow we travel to a small town located near a volcano.
That's it for Saturday, May 1st. Your "roving reports" reporting.
