nicaragua

Woke up at 3:40am to take the bus to Granda Nicaragua. last thing on earth i felt like doing but it actually went by quickly for an 8 hour bus trip. first part of the trip was 2hours along very windy roads up and over mountains. let's just say never again. at one point the driver decided to drive off the road as the road was so abd. not a problem normally.well there was about a metre of grass on the side off the road then a straigh drop down a cliff face. the joys it actually woke me up and other people on the bus were also looking worried. i fell asleep only to wake up to the slamming of breaks and i look out the window to see a guy lying on the side of the road next to his motorbike. we had either hit him or he had slid out. he lay there for a while then got up and put his bicycle back on his motorbike and drive off. changed buses at 7am and took another bus to the border. it went better then boarder crossing in zim. and only take just over an hor at both sides. the bus had leg room for a leggless midget and the short and stumpy men sitting in front of us had their seats right back so that i could almost see up their noses. the ladies behind us kept making little tut tut noises if we put our seat back. i didnt care i just did. there wa a tv on the bus which was great at first as we watched the movie taken. it then switched to really bad 80s spanish pop. the music videos were on a loop i think, i must have watched nelly furtado in spanish about 5 times!!

im already liking it beter here then costa rica. its really hot and humid i think i have showered 3 times already. the hostel is a bit run down but has 24 hour locked gate and security and a nice garden with a pet tortoise and hamocks. we close to the centre were the oldest church in central america is. also a tourist street were we will be going to the pup quiz on wednesday nights. might do volcanoe boarding here and tomorrow should be going to a volcanoe lake.
