Volcano!

---

Today is our last full day of the group
trip--tommorrow folks leave for the airport, etc, and
summer and i are heading to Esteli. I bribed Aaron
with taxi fare to take back my suitcase, which
contains mostly rum and coffee. Pray for its safe (and
unbroken) return!

Unfortunately, i have caught a touch of travel sick,
and haven{t felt well the past 2 days. Everytime I eat
its no good, so wish me fast recovery before
tommorrow!

Today we are had a meeting/presentation from a
speaker about the free trade agreements. It was a really lively discussion and I asked some good questions. He had very constructive things to say about fair trade, and provided a really thorough view of how the power structures are affecting Nicaragua and other countries, particularly in terms of trade and large transnational companies.

Then the rest of the day will be a trip to Masaya to see the
volcano and shop at the local craft market.


Off we go!
