Esteli

Travelling over the boarder to Esteli took us 6 buses. And the distance is not that far at all. But with Clara on my side it was fun. Esteli is famous for cowboys, ranchers, the left wing party FSLN and the "maƱana culture". We took a room in a random hostel and checked out the city. It didn't take us to long to have a beer in front of us. After a nice evening in a italian place and local bars we crashed in the hostel. The next day Clara had to find out that her grandma back home in the Netherlands has past away. After calling the relatives and some time for herself, she decided to join me for a hike to some waterfalls. We had a good time and luck because we were able to hitchhike most of the time. The waterfall it self is a romantic place, especially if some americans offer you free, cold beer that they dragged all the way. Beer in the evening. I think Carla took her loss in a remarkable fashion. Next day we left for Leon. The heart of the FSLN lion.
