Rio San Juan


Last week we started our trip south from Esteli, Nicaragua, where we´d been living for two months. Though we were sad to leave the friends we made, we enjoyed the week of Semana Santa, Central America´s spring break, on the Rio San Juan, before exiting Nicaragua by boat. Here are a few images of this beautiful region. (By the way, this post starts a new and serious effort to post more often on the blog)
