A couple of weeks ago Nicaragua celebrated it´s independence. In San Juan del Sur there was the largest congregation I have seen in the three months I have been here. Not as loud as the mortars during Semana Santa nor as drunk. There was some rowdyness but it was more of a family event with the outbursts being limited to a few. Oh yeah, someone put a shiny new Hilux through the fence at the local school. Nobody was hurt and I´m guessing that whoever the guy was that they found sleeping in the truck as it was sitting in the schoolyard must have had important family.
