Volcanoes and Car Accidents 2
Sorry the last message cut off. The power went off on the island and the lady told me we had 5 minutes so I hit the send button. We are on the Ometepe island in Nicaragua which literally consists of 2 volcanoes. We went out with some locals for my birthday and ended up drinking with them until about 230 in the morning, it was a great time. They also told me that tradition on the island is to smash 2 eggs on the head of the birthday person but somehow I managed to talk them out of it. Today we have been pretty lazy and spent the day trying to catch up on sleep, but the next few days we have some pretty big plans. Tomorrow we rented motorcycles and found some beautiful local women to ride on the backs of them with us, really! The next day we hired a guide who is supposed to take us to the top of the Madera Volcano were apparently you can climb in the crater on top to go swimming. Were all really excited and cant wait to see how the days will unfold. Thanks to everyone who sent me birthday wishes and I cant wait to reconnect with everyone when I get home.
