Feria Latin Flavors 2007

Dan, Jiff and I went to this event in last Friday. This first annual food fair was held in the Crown Plaza Conference Center in the heart of Managua. The opening gala included a chef-wear inspired fashion show and samples of national food. The cerveza girls were well represented (Toña and Premium). It was nicely done and was a unique experience for us and for this country. Click here for more photos.

Old Cathedral in Managua

We (Dan, April, Brandon and myself) went to my dentist in Managua today. I went to a dentist who is popular among the ex-pat community in San Juan del Sur. After my visit, we saw "Spider-Man 3." My initial reaction was that it wasn't as good as "Spider-Man 2". Too many people died in this one. I think there will be a "Spider-Man 4." They can't end it this way. The picture above is of the Old Cathedral in Managua. It was heavily damaged by the 1972 earthquake. Efforts are underway to restore this landmark. Photo: Dan Polley
