Birthdays and Canada
Since my last post I have turned 26 and Charlies turned 25, as well as flying from LA to Toronto via Chicago amid a series of delays due to poor weather in the North of America.
The morning of the 8th Charlie obligingly agreed to get up early, foresaking a pancake breakfast, so we could have a chance of making it to Newport Wedge before thw blackball rules meant I’d have to bodysurf it.

Acapulco & California
Haven’t updated in a while, not since the 23rd of May, when we had arrived in Puerto Escondido, so here’s what’s been happening, read Charlies take on it in the previous text post.
My travel diary goes a bit blank for the rest of our time at Puerto Excondido, we basically surfed/took photos/lay-in each morning, the swell dropped for the rest of the week and picked up a tiny bit...

Gracias I mean Thanks!

So my last update we had just arrived in Puerto Escondido, Mexico, since then a lot has happened. Our 9 day stay in the small surf/fishing town was amazing, we filled our days with early mornings (Ben surfing, me taking pictures), swimming in the hotel pool, reading books and going for walks in the blistering heat. With a little regret at having to leave we got on a coach and...

Mexico
Time for another proper update, We’ve managed to squeeze in a lot of stuff over the last few weeks, I’ll try and remember most of it.
We ended up leaving Hotel Chancletas in N Nicaragua a day early, the surf was amazing every day, but unfortunately there’s nothing else to do there at all.
So we’d get up early, Charlie would take photo’s and I’d surf in the...

The answer is lots! After our stay in Leon we had a long day of travelling to get all the way to La Libertad in El Salvador.
It all started at 9:30am when a dodgy looking taxi arrived to pick us up from the hostel, we then got dropped off a someones house and waited in their living room for our coach.
The coach was very hot and full of central american residents which gave us a...

Honduras, El Salvador and Gautemala
We have arrived in Antigua, Gautemala, we were without internet for a week or so in El Salvador so I’m busily uploading some photo’s in case all our stuff gets nicked, which according to the travel advice sites is quite likely.
I’ll put a proper update on sometime soon, we’ve done a lot over the last 10 days or so, mostly fun but some hairy moments.
Antigua looks nice,...

Chilling in Chinandega
Well, near Chinandega, not too sure if I should give away the location of this particular surf camp, I’d love to come back here and I’m afraid if people knew about the quality and consistency of the waves it might get even more over-run.
Charlie and I are in a Cabana, a private room with a hammock outside, overlooking a nice beach on the NW coast of Nicaragua. The waves are glassy...

Nicaragua
A proper update is due, we are now in Nicaragua, we’ve already stayed for a few nights in Popoyo (pronounced po-poi-yah) where the surf was really good fun and the accomodation was more expensive than we’d have liked, but very nice.
Getting to Popoyo from Tamarindo was fairly straightforward, involving getting the 9am bus from outside the local bank to Liberia - the bus takes ages to...
