Yesterday, I found an egg in the window. Today, I had rice, beans, vegetables, and an egg for breakfast. Then I shooed a chicken out of my room. Leaving the door ajar was not brilliant.
I´m back in Ocotal, the nearby city. It´s about 10 miles from Honduras, and an 8-minute bus ride from Sabana Grande. The buses here are from the States; there are still signs inside marking emergency exits. Every bus has religious icons in the front; I´m not certain why. Anyway, the last two rides to Ocotal that I´ve had were standing room only. On the way back to Sabana Grande, I should be able to find a seat.
Emily, one of the other volunteers here, is going to take a few people on a hike this afternoon. I´ve been given to understand that there´s a swimming hole involved. If I can, I´m going in.

Sweet. Your descriptions are so cool they almost make me want to go to Nicaragua. It can get very lonely here, since I´m surrounded by people I don´t know and find it very difficult to talk to (can anyone say LANGUAGE BARRIER?)
Keep posting, my friend. Keep posting.
You still alive down there?
Thought of you today and your chicken. :D
Thanks Ali!
Language Barrier. I can barely speak with Frederlinda´s dad. He repeats things five or six times and, when I still don´t understand, chuckles and says ¨No entiende...¨. I nod. It´s difficult to say or understand anything.
Hehehe...
Thx :D
