Celebrating the New Year in El Salvador

The man from whom I'm renting a room this year not only has a microwave and a washing machine and clothes dryer, but also owns a beautiful home on the beach. He invited Leslie, the Director of the CIS (the organization which sponsors election observations and has the Spanish and English Schools), 2 other election observers and me to spend New Year's Eve and Day at his beach home. So while most of you were covered with snow and shivering from the cold, we were sunning ourselves and enjoying the ocean breeze.
I've included a few photos in this post. Marvin, the only man in the group, is a gourmet cook and thus was delighted to prepare all our meals. He arranged our plates so that the food both tasted and looked great.
