Hola,
So we are all packed up and ready to leave Laguna de Apoyo early Saturday morning. We are off to Isla de Ometepe. Today was our last day of classes. Dan went to the city Masaya today and went to the artisans market, an old political prison where people were tortured and killed (this freaked him out), and to a pollution site. He says it was more interesting than it sounds! Haha!
Yesterday we went kayaking on the lake and we learned the hard way that this lake is a million times bigger than it looks! We were determined to get to the other side and an hour and a half later we made it! It was worth it! It was an experience we will never forget! The water was clear, blue- green, and the thick green jungle covered the seemingly endless mountains. The best part was the loud Howler monkeys echoeing down through the jungle and over the water! We saw huge red winged grasshoppers. It was an amazing jungle experience and totally worth the blisters and three hour trek!
We hope to buy a card reader on our travels tomorrow so we can share the pictures.
Have a good weekend all!
Love D&J
