Subject: Post: Things never go as supposed, especially when they should.. We took some half-legal taxi from the airport and after getting lost a couple of times arrived to the hostel maybe half past ten in the evening, wishing to catch some sleep before our dive trip six o'clock in the morning.Guess had they lost our reservation, which I made a month ago. And guess were they totally full? Yep. Well, they were in the progress of building another hostel in another part of the city, so we spent our night at that construction yard. At least it was a free night and our beds were brand new, just taken out of plastics.In the morning the hostel guys drove us back to the main hostel, where we had agreed to meet El Salvador Divers people. With them we departed the city to the beautiful crater lake Ilopango, and did two dives to the bottomless (some 230 meters) deep caldera of an active volcano. Lava stones, some small fish, a bit bad visibility, that's about it. The water was very warm and diving was fun in beautiful sunshine, so that definitely was a good start for the trip. Today the main hostel had free beds, so our accommodation problem is over and we are just taking it slow, trying to recover from the long flights etc. Latitude: Longitude: Security Code:
