Arriving in Nicaragua

3am wake up call for a 6am flight to Nicaragua via Miami. It was my first trip that required a passport. Customs was pretty quick! When we arrived at the airport we we greeting by Bridges to Community people who took us in the bus to the hotel for our first meal.

Pretty!

Yummy!

The hotel was great. We thought we were going to stay there the first and last night but only the last 2 nights were spent at the hotel. There were three lop-eared bunnies running around.

Baby bunnies

Parrots

One of two of the contruction site. Tim and Parisa were the two Bridges employees who spent the week with us.

We were greeted with lots of the community members.

There is now a house on this piece of land.

A picture of the site where we stayed for 5 nights. Where we stayed and worked were about 3 kilometers away. This picture shows one of the many animals wandering around.
