First El Tunco experience

So this weekend was a friend's bday so a big group of us went down to the beach and stayed at a beautiful house for the weekend. We went down Friday and just hung out, had some drinks and relaxed. Saturday morning...woke up, some people went surfing and others just stayed back at the house and laid by the pool and hung out. I stayed by the pool. The day was wonderful, I took 2 naps in the hammocks, read 1/2 a book and got some good sun. Before dinner, I went down and hung out on the beach at this surf cafe while one of the girls surfed. It was nice, met some new people and watched all of the surfers. The waves were HUGE but a lot of the surfers were really good and fun to watch. We went back to get ready to go out in the evening. We went out in El Tunco which is the beach party town. I had never in but it was pretty much what I expected. A lot of drunk people dancing, hitting on you and stumbling all over the place. It was fun but definitely not really my scene. It was still fun though and we had a good time dancing all night. We were all pretty tired from being in the sun all day so we went back semi early so we could get up and have another full day today.


This is one of the bedrooms at the house. There are 2 other rooms just like it.

Same as saturday, some people got up super early and surfed and others stayed back. I went along with the surfers this time but just sat on the beach and talked to the people there. One girl brought her two dogs too so I was playing around on the beach and in the water with them too. We headed back semi early because we all had some stuff to get done today and one girl had to catch a bus back to Guatemala. We did stop at a fish market on the way back and ew,ew,ew! It made me never want to eat fish again. All of the fish was just out there with eyes and all and it stunk sooo bad.


This is the pool where I spent much of my time. Waterfall and whirlpool included :)

Overall, it was a super fun weekend. I'm feeling ready for this week and we have a long weekend next weekend so that will be nice. I think I'm going to go along with a couple of the families here in the complejo and a couple other people that rented a beach house in another part of El Salvador. The families each have a 1 year old so who are adorable!! Well, that's all I got for now. Hope everyone had a great weekend.
