Our friend Becca loaned us her card reader so we could upload some pics! Most are from Granada, and we will post more of Laguna de Apoyo tomorrow. I am feeling all better today! Classes were good today. We watched the soccer game with our teachers after class, yay Espana!, then we helped weed the garden, and went for a nice refreshing swim after!
Buenas Noches!

This is in our hotel in Granada, Nicaragua, in one of the many gardens.

This is the Cathedral in Parque Central in Granada. Granada is the oldest European city in the continetal Americas. This city is over 400 years old!

This is a monkey who lives on an island in Lake Nicaragua,

This is Toto the parrot! He was the pet of the owner of this bar we stopped at, on an island on Lake Nicaragua.

This is Volcano Mombacho. Notice the black volcanic rocks that this volcano shot down into Lake Nicaragua 50 million years ago! This volcano is now inactive.

This church is more than 400 years old, and was burnt down by William Walker, an American mercanary who took over the country of Nicaragua and declared himself President in the mid 1800´s. There were many very old churches in Granada, others were older than this one.

This is the main street in Granada, looking up towards Parque Central. It was so pretty here, each building was a different color.

This is Jessica doing laundry in Laguna de Aopyo. This is in the common area of where we are staying.

These are our cooks at Laguna de Apoyo, Laura and Leslie. Leslie is also Dan´s Spanish teacher. They are very nice and wonderful cooks!
