Managua




The hotel, Las Mercedes is a Best Western with a good menu and a couple of swimming pools as well as free internet. We ate supper which was delicious and sat poolside to visit and looked around a little. We're headed off to bed now since we are all VERY tired. I'll put in some pictures of the trip. The surrounding area is quite poor. This is like a little oasis. This is a picture of the appetizer, fried plantains and fried cheese (goat, I think)with refried beans in the middle. There were some pickled chopped onions on the side too. The food was good. NN

I'm filled with pride seeing two of my favorite people in these pictures. Good luck to all of you. And beware of Karl, he throws a mean pillow.
