Free Weekend - Playa San Diego

This past weekend was our “free weekend”, aka we had Saturday night off and therefore could spend it away from our communities. Therefore, 14 of the 15 of us rented a beach house on Playa San Diego in La Libertad and spent Saturday and Sunday there. It was the perfect, relaxing weekend. We hired a driver to pick us all up from our communities at 6 am on Saturday, and after stopping at a super market we arrived at the beach at about 8 am. The house was perfect – 3 bedrooms with enough space for each of us to sleep, a big kitchen, and a long living room with glass doors looking out to the yard, and beyond the yard the ocean. The backyard had 2 hammocks, a huge patio area, and a pool. The backyard led right onto the beach, so we really didn’t have to leave our house to enjoy all of the beach. We spent the day relaxing, tanning, swimming, and eating American food. It was very awesome. However, once again I have learned the lesson of the El Salvador sun. Although Sunday I was only out in the sun for 4 hours, and I applied SPF50 twice, I am completely fried. It is very very uncomfortable. 

We returned to our communities feel happy, rested and relaxed!
