Montericco

While in Antigua Doug and I met up with a great guy who was running a surf camp every weekend out of El Salvador. Because the next trip was still 4 days away we decided to treat ourselves to a little getaway at a beachtown a couple of hours out of Antigua called Monterrico.

Our driver was great and was able to recommend a brand new hotel for us to stay in for our two nights in the sleepy town. Because they had just opened, we were able to secure a nice room for a very reasonable price. With the pool only steps away from our bedroom door, hammocks nearby, and the restaurant a stone throw away, we had very little incentive to actually leave the property. Our three days of ¨beach time¨ turned into 3 days of pool time as we lazed around enjoying a cerveza or two, swimming, reading and drifting in and out of sleep.

It was a wonderful break before the terrible beating we were about to endure the following weekend in El Salvador....surfing-OUCH!


Here´s some quick pics from our trip to Montericco..
