The other Granada

Getting started.

Yesterday marked one month of being in Korea. Mike and I celebrated at the waffle shop near our house with this delicious ice cream waffle. However, before I dive into Korea, I thought I should post a bit about our trip to Nicaragua in February.

We flew into Managua and arranged for our hotel to pick us up and drive us to Granada. The older I get, and the more I travel, the more inclined I am to let someone else do the work for me. Sure, we could have paid much less to hop on a bus and figure it all out ourselves, but I wasn’t in the mood. It was $20 well spent.

After arriving in Granada we headed out for a very groggy walk around town and an even sleepier snack. We needed a nap. When we woke up from our four hour snooze, we were ready to do a bit more exploring. We ate dinner in the main square and stopped in for drinks at a few of the many tourist bars and restaurants. Then it was time for more sleep!

The next morning we headed out on a tour of the cloud forest on Mombacho. More on that later. Back in Granada, we walked down to the Centro Turistico along the lake and strolled up and down the colorful streets. In the evening we ate at a different restaurant on the main square and enjoyed a few more drinks on the tourist strip.

We didn’t get up to too much while in Granada, but I certainly enjoyed our time in such a colorful place.

The next morning we were off to Laguna de Apoyo, a definite highlight of the trip.
