Hot colonial city

---

We just got back from three amazing days at the beach. We had a little cabin with bathroom right on the water (sounds familiar) but these were real waves, not the little splashes we get in Gibsons. 20.00 us per night. such a deal. We are now back in the beautiful colonial city of Leon which is a university town and full of energy. It is very very hot here. We are now just heading out again to do the museum trek. We will head off to the highlands and coffee country in two days and then we will have a week or so in the carribean. Klaus says to mention that this is ground zero for the Sandinistas and there are red and black flags everywhere.
Lots of interest in the new ¨communist¨president....he is not being slow in making deals and instituting major changes. The country is so very poor, it must be a huge challenge to govern. There is so little infa structure, even collecting taxes is very hit and miss ....We see much poverty.
More later,
Fran and Klaus
