Puerto Lopez

After our trip down the coast and a brief visit with a good friend in Portoviejo, we finally arrived in Puerto Lopez where my sister has been living for the past few months. I live in a tent under a shelter beside my sister’s boyfriend’s parent’s house. The abundance of bugs and other creatures don’t bother me so much, but the lack of sanitation is kind of getting to me. Otherwise, it’s a cool place, small town with a nice beach.
On Tuesday, Jorge prepared us some delicious lobster in a peanut sauce. Yesterday we went by boat to Salango Island where we snorkelled. Later, while fishing, I caught a puffer fish! Today we did a type of purge by drinking a powder made with 7 types of seeds that is supposed to get rid of all the bad stuff in our digestive systems.
