Hey!
Long time no blog! sorry about that, we have been mega busy. In the last blog we were in Honduras, and now we have been to Nicaragua, then Costa Rica and now Nicaragua again! let me explain....
From Utila, Honduras we travelled to Tegucigalpa (capital of Honduras) and then onto the border into Nicaragua. We took a rather unusual but adventurous set of buses to get here, which also involved us walking over the Nicaraguan border! Once in Nicaragua we waited in a very controversial bus station consisting of pigs, cows, horses, ducks, chickens and lot's of dogs! We arrived in Leon, Nicaragua that same evening and stayed in the very popular BigFoot Hostel- very cool to have a hostel with a pool. We stayed another day and night in Leon, and then headed the next day to granada. In true traveller small world style we met up with Matt and Tiffany, (a couple we had met in Utila) in 'The bearded monkey'(wicked hostel in Granada) where we spent the evening engrossed in drinking games, including 4kings, in which we all got very drunk!Â
next we suddenly realised that we were one day away from Cath's arrival, and so on Sunday we took the 9hour bus journey on a very comfortable Tica Bus, from Granada to San jose (capital), Costa Rica. After finding our hostel we met a very weary, and a very in need of a cigarette and a drink Cath at San Jose airport. cath was very dissapointed to find that San Jose didn't supply her usual tipple of Cider, but she was quickly persuaded into Rum and Coke, and there has been no stopping her since!!!!
Not wanting Cath to get a break, we headed the next morning straight back into Nicaragua, where we stayed for 3days in San juan Del Sur. Here we spent two very needed beach days, sunning ourselves and playing in the huge waves of the Pacific ocean- Excellent! Now we are back in the Bearded Monkey in Granada, chilling out in this great hostel. Tomorrow we are off to the Monkey hut! (will explain in next blog)
 see ya for now
Charlie, Cath and Kev xxxx
