Grenada, part II
Sorry--we were on La Isla de Ometepe for 4 nights and (followed by a night in San Juan del Sur) and didn´t really have internet access. Ometepe is basically 2 islands, both with large volcanoes, connected by a small isthmus in Lago Cocibolca (Lake Nicaragua). Did about a 15 km hike from our hostel, up to the San Ramon waterfall, and back, and got to experience the typhoon-esque rains of the Nicaraguan rainy season while making our way to Finca Magdalena, a Nicaraguan-run plantation (with good coffee!!). For the most part, the coffee isn´t all that great. The good roasts are generally exported and are too expensive for locals, so they mostly have instant coffee. Have a pound of Finca Magdalena organic coffee in my bag, if anyone wants to stop by and try some. Will write more and upload pictures tomorrow night or Monday when back in SF.
