NICARAGUA – The Trip

GRENADA
We then spent 2 days on the bus going through the rest of Honduras and most of Nicaragua ending in Grenada. It has the best colonial architecture in the country but doesn´t compare to Antigua. We walked around lots going to many cathedrals and went up the nearest volcano of Mombacho. With our excellent guide, we walked around the crater obtaining magnificent views down to Grenada, Lake Nicaragua with its many small islands, Lake Apoyo and the Puelblos Blancos, a series of small highland towns known for their handicrafts. The big tourist street is closed to cars, has tables and has chairs outside each restaurant. The young street dance troupe were world-class. One fellow could dislocate his shoulders and do amazing things. A sweet 8-year-old orphan made a grasshopper out of a vine to sell to us.

We flew from Managua to Panama City.

I would like to think of myself as a full time traveler. I have been retired since 2006 and in that time have traveled every winter for four to seven months. The months that I am "home", are often also spent on the road, hiking or kayaking. I hope to present a website that describes my travel along with my hiking and sea kayaking experiences.
