Day 900

19/6/2008

It should be a Party Right? Ive been on the road for 900 Days, 90% Done, 90% Broke, 10% of no idea on what I’m going to do post Day 1000…

The day started in Monteverde, Costa Rica at 5.30am.

4 buses, 1 taxi, 9 hours, 1 border and who knows how many KM’s later. I’m back in Grenada, Nicaragua.

Time to start the celebrations: A beer, or 9 and see what happens.

This is just an example of the work involved in putting on this production. Happily brought to me by me, shared with ??? I’m smiling all the way!

Oh and what havent I seen in the 900 days? A chicken on a chicken bus. I might buy one, put it on a leash and take it for a ride just to tick that box.

Hunting the Giant Shrimp

13/6/2008

I heard a legend of 1kg+ river shrimps on the Rio San Juan, in the very south of Nicaragua.

I needed no more encouragement, I was on the next 10 hour boat ride across the lake to taste them for myself.

While we didn“t manage to find any shrimps that met the 1kg mark. There is no denying they are a pretty impressive size, and damn tasty to boot.
