DAY NINE (23 June)

Yesterday was SOOO hot. I’m sure it was over a hundred and I was still sick. At lunch Jason suggested we escape the heat to San Salvador and he didn’t have suggest twice. We caught a ride in an air-conditioned truck with our friends with the beach house. A trip that takes 3 hours on sweaty buses took 1 hr in the truck. It wasn’t until we were in cooler San Salvador that I felt personally hot. I had a temp of 102. A little Tylenol, a shower with running water (the water has been off in Barra for three days) and a trip to the movies – The Happening.- and I was feeling a little better.

Today I fell better, but I’m taking it easy. We went to Shaw’s Café to catch some internet, but that’s broken. So McDolands across the street has WiFi – very slow, but I must have spent 3 hours in there. That’s more time I’ve spent in McDs in the last 10 years.

With the handy internet at my disposal I was able to finish off the newsletter.
