Day 7 Granada=Heaven

March 5, 2011 - 16:16

Today we headed back south and through Managua. We stopped at a National park and we got to see an active volcano. There were also beautiful 360• views when you climb to very top.  

Then we arrived in heaven! Cloth table cloths! Cloth napkins! No Mosquitoes! Salad with salad dressing! 60 minute massages for $25 US dollars! Meat cooked medium rare! Cold bottled water! 

We went on a beautiful boat ride in the huge lake here. There are over 300 islands and many of them have beautiful private homes-one house per island. There was one for sale-beautiful, electricity, dock, pool, everything for only $307,000 US. I will sell my puny apartment, Mom, Dad you in for the rest? Pat and John? It really was beautiful. 

After I wondered the streets and bought a couple of fun gifts made by the locals here. 

I am headed to church tonight and then out to dinner with everyone. We head home tomorrow so probably only one more blog from me...
