Starry Night


Last night I traveled to Granada, a rather touristy town in Nicaragua, by boat. The boat leaves my town around 8:30 pm and arrives in Granada at 5:30 am. It is actually a very relaxing way to travel when compared to the unpaved highways of my bus ride. I felt a moment of aww around 10 pm last night while looking up from my hammock, which I strung up on the deck of the boat next to 2 friends. The sky was cloudless and the stars were AMAZING! I really don't think I've seen such a bright starry night in my life. I just thought I would share that with you, along with pictures, 1 of the bus that goes to my site and the others of previous boat trips.

The brown you see are cushions from other chairs that fell off due to the
bumpy ride...it is a converted school bus

Yea, the boat seems like the way to go (especially if you can sleep in a hammock). Beautiful scenery!
