Touring Nicaragua

Today we continued the vacation portion of our trip, starting with a visit to the supermarket this morning to buy supplies for lunch.  It looked very American, which isn't surprising as the chain is owned  by Wal-Mart. We were amused to find Spam in the "Gourmet" portion of the market. From there we moved to zip-lining. Everyone participated, even though some thought about bowing out.  We went down the line in the normal way, as well as upside down, backwards and flying like superman. We had a blast!  After a picnic lunch, we visited a master potter and got a demonstration on how to make beautiful pots. We also bought quite a few of his pieces of art. We ended the day with a visit to the artisan's market in Masayo where everyone had a chance to shop for gifts and souvenirs. Tomorrow we are back to work!
