Puerto del Diablo...still sick

So I slept in today. Woke up and slept, woke up, and slept. I declined breakfast and got up in the afternoon and tried to eat some soup from yesterday. I drank some of the broth and gave the rest to the pets.  Later we went to Puerto del Diablo or in English The Devil's Door.


Juan (boy) and Carlos

It is basically stairs on the side of a mountain that you are able to ascend and see a beautiful view of other mountains and volcanoes. Now I am not sure how hard it is suppose to be but I was huffing and puffing and my heart was beating fast like I had ran a marathon. I took many rest breaks with Claudia and Carlos while Juan (5 year old) tried to run ahead. I have to contribute me being out of breath to my illness and the fact that I am most certainly dehydrated and have barely eaten anything. After we reached the top we took a moment to enjoy the view with Juan already ready to leave. We then went to eat. I ate one Papusa (Papusa is a Salvadorian dish. A corn tortilla filled with meat, beans, shrimp, or/and cheese). Afterwards we stopped and looked at a beautiful view of the San Salvador.

Later we returned to the house. I snacked as I still want ready to eat. I went to bed early again.
