San Juan del Sur Nicaragua

Our expectations for Nicaragua were not very high based on what we had heard/read in the news media. We were pleasantly surprised and actually found San Juan del Sur to be our favorite port on the whole trip. We found the city to be very clean and well organized. The people were all very friendly and we felt completely safe. Our biggest surprise was that the street vendors did not harrass us to buy their wares. In the other ports, they were all over you to buy something. Hint to the vendors... we actually bought more in San Juan than any other port!

Seems like all the Centeral/South American countries have very interesting electrical power systems.  Not many standards or rules here.

Port was too small for the ship so they anchored about a mile out and used small tenders

This guy was anchored just off our port side.  At least the guns were covered.
