Nicaragua


What a great place! Nicaragua has suffered through Civil War for years but has come out of it well. The people are kind, but a bit shy. There's not a lot of infrastructure for tourists which makes it more real...what you experience is authentic. Still, we found it quite easy to travel around and there are plenty of cheap places to stay. After reading all the warnings in the guidebooks we almost skipped it altogether, but on the advise of other travellers, decided to visit and loved our time here.


Managua is not great...but the downtown Cathedral is really beautiful.

We continued south from Managua and visited:
Granada
Ometepe
San Juan Del Sur
