7/25/14: Day 145: Never in 1 trip

Della and I couldn’t sleep so we out of bed at 5:00. We left the house at 7:30 to go to Santa Ana (1.2 hour drive). Our mission for the day was ambitious; we hoped to get my residency and our El Salvadorian driver’s licenses. Our first stop was the immigration office where we encountered a guard that told us that it was closed for the day. So we went on to the DMV and they told us we had to have a notarized copy of our U.S. license (which we knew we needed) and a note from the doctor with association stamp stating our blood type (which we didn’t know we needed). So on the way home we stopped in Ahuachapán for the same lawyer that did our residency papers. He made the copies and notarized them. Then he told us that there was a clinic nearby. We drove around in circles for 15 minutes and finally found a clinic that looked like it would work but I am sure it is not the one the lawyer had tried to direct us to. They took our blood and said we could come back Monday to get the results. Today was 2 for 1 day at the pizza place so we grabbed lunch and then went back home. I spent the rest of the day intermittently studying Spanish.
