Working Vacation in a Third World Nation

Tales (and photos) of life in Nicaragua.

The man of the hour, San Juan himself, even made an appearance.

On an interesting side note, someone at the fiesta told me that many of the fireworks the people use to celebrate this guy are not actually fireworks at all, but bags full of explosive powder left over from pipe bombs used during the revolution. I can't verify that, but I can tell you that they scare the bejesus out of any gringo within earshot. Nicas, on the other hand, don't even bat an eye when one goes off under their chairs.Posted by Picasa
