A trip to Leon

Yesterday, we went to Leon. It is one of the oldest cities in Nicaragua and was primarily built by the Spanish. It was great to see more of Nicaragua, even though Leon is the hottest city! We took one of the local buses from Leon to the ocean, which is about 20 minutes, but on a bus it ended up being an hour and a half. Just getting on the bus was an adventure, there were so many on it that we had to climb up through the back door (its an old american school bus) and fight our way forward. There is not really the concept of "personal space". When we got the sea, it was beautiful. We got to eat at a restaurant on the beach and then walk along the beach and the bay. I got to be a tourist, which means I took lots of pictures: click here to see them
