Today is Blog Action Day 2008 and this year’s focus is on poverty. Poverty can be defined as lack of the common necessities that determine quality of life – lack of safe food, shelter, and clothing, lack of opportunities presented by education, health care, and community.
I am in the process of uploading photos to my photo gallery located here. There is a total of 380 or so photos that I have taken this trip so far and the uploading script is telling me that it will take about 21 hours to get them all uploaded. Due to this time delay, it may take me a bit of time to get descriptions to go with these photos but please bear with me while I suffer with slow internet speeds.

Today was my first full day in Nicaragua. It felt really good. I had a great sleep and felt quite relaxed and well rested despite waking up with many mosquito bites (screens and windows never seem to go together in Central America).
As usual the trip from Sarnia to Toronto is more of a pain than the actual flight from Toronto to Managua. Now that RobertQ does only 2 trips a day from Sarnia to Toronto I had to leave at 1:45 PM to catch my 8:30 AM flight the next day.
I am off again to Nicaragua. This will make for the third trip in 14 months to this very beautiful (but misunderstood) country.
