Our last few days together consisted of still getting up with the sun between 5:30 and 6 am. Watching the light chase away the darkness and headed to the restaurant for breakfast. It officially opens at 8 am, but staff is there at 7 and will serve you willingly. The Nica coffee being served there…
Now where were we….?
When we left this story, Arlene had just had surgery to repair a double fracture/displacement in her right ankle. The goal at the time was to be able to bring her back to the resort to at least enjoy the view for a few days. I think I left off saying I’d be staying in…
Snap…Crackle…Pop!
That’s kinda what I heard behind me as we came down a hilly path at a bird sanctuary. Some of you know what happened and some have been asking so here’s the Coles notes version.We were in a bird sanctuary in Ticuantepe, which is kind of a suburb of Managua. All was going well on…
Nica Trip Day 3…
Greetings… Yesterday I had one of those ridiculously long naps that leaves you stupefied when you wake up. It was 5 pm and Arlene was calling to me to WAKE UP!! We’re missing it!! It being the sunset we had anticipated all day. I scrambled to grab my camera and head out. People were already…

Good Morning! Sitting here in the living room of our condo, doors open to a view of the Pacific, listening to the breeze blow the waves in, landing with a crash on the shore…pinch me… So we left this little story in the Atlanta airport yesterday evening. This is a busy place. Planes coming and…
Hop…skip…and a jump…
Well, today’s the day! Stayed in Wpg last night to grab some sleep before heading to the airport for 5:30 am. Good grief! It was nasty cold this morning. Trying to dress light because we land in plus 38 degree weather. But my goodness, going down the ramps, unheated ramps, to the plane was quite…
Nica Bound
Arlene and I feel very fortunate to be able to take a trip this winter. Not only because we can escape a Manitoba winter for a few days, but for the opportunity to see another part of this globe we’re spinning around on. When looking at different options, we’re both not fans of going to…
Some random ramblin’s
Well….the weather has turned cold. Wind whistling out of the north. We’re heading towards the sports juggernaut of baseball/football/hockey all being on at the same time….and the Bombers are on a losing skid.Yep…all is as it was…. Watched with some hope that the Bombers would come out of their losing skid with a game against…
So….is it a mission trip?
That’s the question Arlene and I get the most when we tell people we’re heading to Nicaragua for a holiday in December.I’m not sure why that’s the first thing that comes to mind. Anyway, we are going to Nicaragua in December to stay at a resort on the Pacific side called Milagros Del Mar. We…
