Today, we are away and in transit to nowhere; I guess you could call
it our first true day of vacation. San Juan del Surīs Nicaraguaīs
primo tourist spot for good reasons, in spite of the condos and real
estate offices. Thereīs the sea (Pacific), mountains, bordering
forest, and also what one might call the bare-bones infrastructure of
luxurious leisure: coffee shop or 2, several bars, and some
restaurants. No, Iīm not suddenly soft and calling these necessities.
Think more "nice-to-haves" when the goal for the day is more catch up
on reading and less traipse through a jungle:)
So, the traipsing is minimal. But good preparation: I learn how to
use my GPS more effectively and find what I think will be the road we
ride to Rivas, our next destination. Sans rack for baggage, I
envision forging a replacement tomorrow, visions of an Iron Man in
captivity - esque workshop dancing in my head...
