Just got back to Managua. Sorry I missed you Melissa.

Had a nice carriage ride around the city, stopped at Doña Elba Cigars new shop and bought some sticks for back home. Spent the last hour or...

Well, the trip to Leon is a bust. Too many of the folks didn't want to go, so we are heading back to Granada again.

We plan to start the morning with a visit to downtown Managua to see Paseo...

Spoke with our bus driver and interpreter.

Bus driver said cars/taxis can go to the top, but there is no place to turn the bus around so we would have to walk up.

Interpreter said that she...

According to the viaNica website, Coyotepe is open daily from 8:00 to 5:00. Does anyone know if this includes Saturday's? We are thinking about visiting this coming weekend and want to make sure it...

Every year, my nieces get to choose their family's dinner on their own birthday. One year the 10yo decided that the family would eat peel and eat shrimp and fried tofu. We get invited to...

If you get the chance to be in the SW Managua neighborhood where I have been working in years past, stop by. You can see all the progress we have made on the school.

We will be arriving late on...

Excellent, thanks. We have a team meeting coming up next Saturday to discuss the upcoming trip. I'll pass along this information to see what kind of reaction I get.

p.s. - I saw a picture...

Thanks for the responses.

As mentioned we have been there in the past (last time was about 3 years ago) and saw some of the sights/churches and of course the cathedral, just by walking around and...

There will be a group of +/-20 Norteamericanos that are considering a day trip to Leon on a Saturday in November. We have visited Leon previously, but often have simply spent time wandering in and...

Sounds like you need to get in touch with Catahuala Fan to see if she has some herbal things you could try. From the sounds of some of her previous posts, she seemed to be on to some natural...

With a flat black Winnebago sporting the Jolly Roger and a pick-up truck with trailer, I'm picturing a scene from Mad Max.

A touching tribute. I am sorry for your collective loss.

Regarding the glue, I had a doctor tell me that sniffing glue dulls hunger pangs so the sniffer is no longer hungry, but the damage to the brain and the wasting away of the body is the result of the...

Might bump into you. We'll be there the second week of Nov, staying through middle of the third. Thinking about trying out a different place to stay this year too - off of Car. Sur, KM8 (ish). ...

:lmao: I feel your pain, but you're gonna have to get over that. Some days you're the dog, and some days you're the hydrant.

Congratulations to the both of you. Blessings and ten-thousand besides.

I will second his recommendation of Mr. Fred and Casa Ulrich. A great fellow and a wonderful cook.

I agree with the posts - good writing. A whimsical tour of the town. I haven't been there for a couple of years, but did take the time to walk among the shops when I was there. The smells of fresh...

"Bippity-boppity-bacon!"

Gallo pinto and a couple of fried eggs sounds like a great breakfast to me. Every time I am in Nicaragua, I want gallo pinto. I've tried to make it at home, but it never turns out the same.

Congratulations.
