It has been said about Nicaragua that "if you come for a day you’ll never return but if you stay for a month you’ll never leave.”



This was a beach shack...eclectic...perfect for a day in the sun.


A lover of cats opened a refuge for thus said animal...there were 132 of them.









My daughter and daughter-in-law traveled to Nicaragua this past summer to take a vacation. "Why Nicaragua" was the main question posed to them about their choice...a choice into a different world far from the streets of Seattle. It was more a journey than a vacation...one that changes world views. So I post these pictures that Sarah took to give us a glimpse of what they experienced and to give us a chance of being grateful...thanks Sarah for sharing them.

Nicaragua is a magical place. I have visited twice in the past 6 years. Once for language school in Granada and again in Rivas to build Habitat Houses. I hope to go again soon with a group of students from Salem.

Have the same hopes of visiting the area. We have relatives that live down there begging us to join them. Thanks for viewing the blog.
