I think nicaraguense is spelled wrong and I don't know if sabor nicaraguense directly translates into a taste of Nicaragua, but nevertheless I had a successful border run last weekend. I got to go to the beach, see where Amanda works, meet some of her friends, and learn some useful slang and phrases that probably shouldn't be repeated.
I really liked Amanda's host family. They were very nice and accomadating as well. I also had a good time in Leon with two of Amanda's friends-Memo and his sister Reyna. They were very fun and helped me immensely with my horrible Spanish. We spoke in Spanish for the majority of the trip and it was good to finally get some practice. It had to be annoying hearing the phrase como se dice over and over again, but they were very patient.
The night before I headed back we had a few drinks with Ana, Elena and Julieta. It was nice to see Ana again. She is pretty funny and hopefully will be able to come for our next trip to Panama.
It was good to see Amanda and the great things she is doing. She is a real inspiration. If you are reading this, keep up the good work sis.
Hasta la proxima
