Soggy in Granada

Last night after dropping off our laundry, we went and got some Chinese food. Most of the mall Chinese places looked kinda sketch, but this one was amazing. I got fried rice with chicken, pork, and shrimp...a massive plate for $3. I had so much left over that I brought it back and fed some to a little kitty. We named him Comida China (Ko-Mee-Dah Chee-nah). He had a friend nearby that I named General Tso, but he was more skiddish. In the middle of the night I could see Comida sticking his arms under the door.

 

It's basically rained since we got here, so we haven't been able to do much. We made a trip to the market to look for a hammock, but it was a sloppy mess.

 

Jordan finished cutting Cory's hair this morning. They were using the clippers and the battery died, so Cory slept with a pretty punk haircut.

 

We had a break in the rain long enough to eat some delicious pizza at an outdoor cafe in this beautiful city. It was one of those great moments where you feel truly alive.

 

Tomorrow we leave Granada and head back to Managua. We'll buy our Tika Boooos tickets and head to Costa Rica on Tuesday. That should be a 9 hour trip. On Oct 3 we will make the 17+ hour drive to Panama and that should put us in South America on Oct 8.

 

Weirdest line of the night...Jordan to Cory, "Dude, the back of your head looks amazing."  I don't think I've ever heard those words before.

 

Oh and for all my Philly fan friends, I'm pumped about the Eagles and Phillies :)
