Doing just fine....
... me just fine, feels like good ol'GA. I've been stuck in this swanky hotel called the Hotel Camino Real here in Managua. Today I got some immunizations and the other trainees and I played ultimate frisbee and swam in the pool. There is some awesome ...

DEPARTURE DAY FROM LITTLE CORN
Departure day from Little Corn quite necessary with only $15. US remaining(no bank on Little Corn). Go to Big Corn and fly to Managua. Deja vu all over again in being rejected at airport ATMs. Now I have only $12. US.. Taxi from the airport $15. US.. ...
Managua
... for $50USD. Man, it might cost about 100 Cordobas in taxi (one way) and 150 cordobas for the entrance fee. Um, that's like $20 USD for a two-way ride and entrance fee. If you end up in Managua, I would definitely recommend this as a place to go and ...
Comadres: Spirit Fingers!
... of soccer coherence...but what we lacked in skill we surely made up for in spirit. The United Nations tournament was held in Managua, Nicaragua. The UPEACE women and men's teams filled a 55 passenger bus, and at 3am on Friday April 27th, we headed for ...
DAY ONE (or zero?)
... burger and finger printing in Houston, and then arrival, with exciting drive reminiscent of Kampala nights to the Trust's headquarters in Managua, which is made out of straw but looks pretty fancy! Surprisingly homely - 2 cats and lots of tea to drink! ...
Managua
After checking out of Hotel Valeria in Granada, I caught a ride with my guide for the day, Mario, to Managua. I had met Mario during my trip to Lago Apoyo the day before. After stopping by the Granada baseball stadium and his house, we drove about an hour ...
Day 9
... something so essential to everyday life is absurd. No one should have to pay for something so important. There are already places in Nicaragua that have less or no water at all. Estelí for example is not being given water as a resource. Why are ...
Managua
I am in Managua attending the Nicaraguan Methodist Church's yearly General Conference meeting, but have been too busy and too tired to keep up this blog. This is just a quick entry to let everyone know where I ...
Another lovely day
... happy and looking forward to that. Tomorrow we are going to visit the dry mill Sol Cafe and then I think it´s back to Managua for a tourist day on Sunday at the volcano park near there and a trip to the Masaya market. Then Monday Lisa and I ...
"Maiiiiine!!!"
... no idea where our hostel would be on a dated map we had so we got another taxi to get to our hostel. We stayed at the Managua Backpackers Inn. Turns out there are two houses for the Inn. One is the reception (main building) and a few other rooms such as ...
How it should be!
... onto Managua, where we have a couple of days to rest, repair the car, explore and not cross any borders :). The driving in nicaragua is also much better than most other countries we have been. Honduras wins, hands down for worst driving, by a country ...
I am here safe and sound!
... and had a chat and a beer (tastes a lot like Tecate). In just a bit we are off to get background info on Nicaragua, history, current issues then chat with Lutheran folks about the programs they are involved with here and then a tour of the city. After ...
It sucked.
It sucked. Scary and ugly and pointless. Don't go there. Just put it in a file with "Belize City" and never think of it ...
Around Managua
... It was fun, though, and now I know a few Latin dance steps... hopefully I be able to try them with a partner before I leave Nicaragua. After going back to the hostel and taking a nice cold shower (damn, that felt good), I went to Rotonda Bello ...
Our Nicaragua adventure
... an amazing place for tourism because of its beauty and colonial architecture, charming hotels and activities to enjoy nearby: Lake Nicaragua and the Islands, Mombacho volcano with its natural reserve, Masaya and its folklore, and much more. It is located ...
First stop Managua-capital of Nicaragua
So we finally arrived to Managua airport after being delayed 2h when deporting from Miami. Tired but exited, we expected some trouble at the airport, after having a very unpleasant check-in with American Airlines. Turns out, no hassle at all. No questions ...
