Rough guide...

For the curious and the fam,
Our travel itinerary-which is very rough is as follows:
We are slowly going to make our way to Honduras, stopping in the towns of Lago de Coatepeque, Juayua, Suchitoto, and La Palma. It will probably take us a week to get to Honduras although it is tough to gauge. With waterfall rappeling and a feria de gastrinomica (food fair) in Juayua, lake swimming in the lago de Coatepeque and possibly staying in an empty mansion of a friend for free, and open-aired markets in La Palma plus hiking El Pital (the tallest mt. in El Salvador) we might move slower than we think.
Once we get to Honduras, our main plan is to check out the ruins of Copan, and then head to La Cieba on the Carribean coast for lots of eco-tours. Rafting the Rio Cangrejal (class4-5), hiking in the cloud forests, and snorkeling the reef. We then plan on taking a ferry to the Utila in the Bay Islands (our target date for this is Dec. 27th) where we will meet up with our friends Terra and Randy. We want to get our scuba certs here on the island and then whoop it up for New Years! After leaving the islands, we´re gonna head to Nicagarua to visit with Olin and Ophelia. Our plans in Nicaragua aren´t very defined at this point, but we´ll figure it out soon.
We love you guys and hope all is well where ever you all are!
Sending you muchos besos from San Salvador!

Yo dudes,

Sounds like the adventures are rolling, good times. I'll check the blog from time to time. Have fun on Utila that's where I got certified and came down with the amoebas for the first time. Spent a few days puking in the bay and watching all the colorful fish eat it. That was fun. If I could remember the name of the taco shop where I think I got 'em I would tell you, but that detail is long gone. Have fun, travel safe and paddle hard.

Besos,
Farmer
