Day 61, Crossed from El Salvador to Guatemala
Tunnels in El Salvador. Highway Central America 2 does not post highway signs as they should and we ended up on a highway in the mountains headed toward Capitol-San Jose, El Salvador
Finally stopped and asked for directions and we had missed the turn-off at the Y which was not posted. Apparently everyone is knowledgeable of their highway except the tourist. Finally returned to the correct road. After all the frustration, we finally made it to the border crossing. El Salvador Crossing was fairly easy but going into Guatemala was hectic. Too many border crossings in such a short time can make one go bonkers.
La Carreterra Hotel and Restaurant near Chiquimulila, Guatemala where we are staying the night. The area is nice and quiet by CA Highway 2. We are all exhausted after a day of more then 2 1/2 hours at the border. Trying to cross from El Salvador to Gautemala and all the paperwork required. Just unbelievable that we still need triple copies of all these forms and originals when we were already in the system when we crossed into Guatemala in January. Go Figure? Al says all these people need a job so everyone has to be given a copy of the forms as you go through each department. Ermila
