Day 13 ..i think day 14 as well its getting blurry

We rode the southern coast of El Salvador along the Pacific sideand its was amazing coastlines. Some really hardcore obscure beaches for surfers are found here. Although very little tourism in these parts of El Salvador. The mood defintely changed abit as we pulled into town quite late, after dark, to find a place to spend the night. One of the unwritten rules while riding motos in Central America is don't ride after dark especially in unstable places like El Salvador. Its had it share of newsworthy stories for unstable government again. So what do we do...that's right pull into small town that seemed to fit the El Salvador Mafia (cartel) just perfect. We ended up riding thru the streets of Acajulta..a shady trucker town where we got more than our share of yells and stares. We pulled up to this autotel which we werent sure what it is but was located near an adult club but only place we could find. So the guard with his loaded ak45 greeted us at the gate let us in and we tried to ask about rooms. As with all our communications with minimal spanish we got the idea across and he let us see the rooms. Well Hugh Hefner would have been proud as the rooms were perfect for entertaining..suave looking curtains over bed...couch for chillin and best of all the rooms were by the hour......haha

Back on the bikes we spent another good while looking for another place to crash for the night. We should have gotten the picture earlier as the neon lights were done in same style as the nearby strip club. We found another place also with armed guard that was actually quite acceptable. We are getting used to this sleeping with weapons around. Its sad but just a way of life after dark in these parts. The owners of the place were quite nice and even fixed us some good dinner.

You be the judge here...

Although the rodes were quite nice you do have to be on the lookout for many animals that are walked down the only access from point A to B ..the highway
