Brr, it's cold!

Yup, you read correctly. Now that we’re in November, (6 months in-country!) the winter chill is beginning to hit. And by ‘chill’, I mean awesomeness. Yeah between 9-5 and it’s still nearly 90 degrees with a relentless sun. But in the evenings? The breeze drops the temperature to a frigid 70. It is pretty funny to watch my host family put on sweaters and long socks and complain about how cold it is. In addition, the Nicaraguan rain gods turned off the big faucet in sky. It hasn’t rained in 3 weeks and supposedly shouldn’t until April. So I guess this is advance warning that I’m gonna be a big baby when I come back to snow and ice IN ALMOST 1 MONTH!

This upcoming weekend will include kayaking, natural springs, waterfalls, volcanos, beaches, a road race, monkeys and rum cocktails. Stay tuned!
