Hot and Sticky

Thanks to our delays, we got into Managua after dark, so we went with our usual plan of getting into a safe place as quick as possible. We met a fellow backpacker in Honduras. He's a guy traveling solo from South Korea. He stayed in our hostel with us. It was $5 per person per night. 

 

   He neglected to inform us that he was catching a bus at 6am, so his alarm went off before 5am, which we appreciated. He was a cool guy though, so it was ok.

 

   We got up early and ditched the hostel in favor of a hotel. Our room has 4 beds, somewhat functioning AC, and a private bathroom for 11.50 per person.

 

   To be honest, I was hating Managua this morning. It's so hot and the air doesn't move. Even the mall isn't air conditioned. It's pretty miserable.

 

   The good news is that we have some great ministry opportunities coming up. We are meeting with a Christian school, a camp, an orphanage, a youth ministry, and a hotel ministry--whatever that is :)

 

   In my never-ending quest to keep you informed in the bathroom situation throughout our trip, we come to Nicaragua. In the mall in Managua there are seven toilet stalls and ONE tp dispenser outside the stalls that they all share. So it's pretty much a game of prediction. Too much and you look like a tree-hater. Too little and you're doing an awkward shuffle to the far wall of the bathroom to resupply. Do you feel lucky?
