Weekend at the beach

A couple of weeks ago was a holiday here in Central America. As a teacher, I get the holidays off . . .very different from ranger days :)
We decided to get out of the city for a few days and went to San Juan del Sur. It is a traveler hot spot for surfers and . . what we didnt know on this particular weekend a hot spot for partying high schoolers (including my students) which we were able to avoid.
We stayed in a nice little bed and breakfast run by a funny lady from South Carolina. During the day we rented bikes and rode 20 km on bumpy dirt roads that our car wouldn't have survived to get to some quieter beaches away from town. At night we were exhausted and had beer, fresh fish and ceviche for dinner. We got back home after three nights and still had a day to hang around the house. It was really nice to get away for a bit.
