Hey everyone,
So, I have been awake since 3:45 this morning (It is now 11 at night). I´ll definitely be elaborating on my day in a later post, but right now I would just like to say that I cannot truly express all the feeling I am undergoing right now. As you may have heard, Mauricio Funes won the presidency. This is a momentous ocassion for many Salvadorans, as is communicated by the drone of car horns I can hear from the computer room in the hotel. I have been amazed at the story of the Salvadoran people for this entire trip, and watching people vote in this election is truly an honor. I really can´t express just how amazing it has been to see democracy here and now to watch the people of El Salvador enter a new period in their history.
