Raining cats and dogs

 

Chinandega does not have the best residual water system as you can see after this strong 20 minute rain....good thing is that it cleans the streets. I pity those who live downstream (wherever that is).

Sweet orange and cream bliss

It's back!!!! Another Eskimo flavor of the month (or whatever lapse of time they decide). Think poor man's Dreamsicle and you are in the right neighborhood with this colorful guy. It's frozen, creamy experience can be had for a mere C$5 ($0.25). Ummm ummmm

Storm on it's way....

It's the rainy season and sometimes the storms sneak up with a beautiful vengeance.

Off the beaten path....

I won't say it's far, but I had to grease the wagon twice before I hit the main road. It was worth it thought cause these trees are really neat!!! They are perfectly aligned in their own twisted way. Please click on the pictures. They look even better enlarged. By the way, this road is near 4 Corners, Pellizco, Chinandega.

The other side of Corinto

I though I should post this too cause it's a great view from Corinto towards San Cristobal volcano.

A deer hogging the spotlight

In someone's backyard I found this deer, 2 pigs and a rooster living in sublime harmony. I thought some of you might want to say hi!

Outhouse

Not a lot to say about this. I will say that even the best countries in the world passed through periods of heavy outhouse usage. Some places in town still have these...and almost everybody in the countryside uses these. Not a pleasantry but gets the job done. For a full history on outhouses, go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outhouse.
