Subject: Post: Short walk around the city, photos below. The violent past and also the current crime situation of El Salvador is pretty visible when walking around the city. Electric fences, heavily armed guards..The city is still pretty nice looking, peaceful feeling and small compared to the other Central American capital cities which are pretty chaotic. Tomorrow our plan is to go visit the guys at Club Salvadoreano de aviacion civil y reserva, the local air club. I have been emailing with the club president and they told they would be happy to take us flying with them, wouldn't even accept money for that. And I like to fly in different countries and see how aviation works in them. It's going to be interesting, the winds here are quite strong and gusty as we are on the Pacific coast, plus the hot sun generating strong updrafts together with the mountains. :) Latitude: Longitude: Security Code:
