Estoy muy consado. What a day. It began when the alwarm went off at 6 AM, and we quickly got dressed and ate breakfast. After, we left for Mumbacho, a large volcano on the other side of Managua. It took around 3 hours to get there.
Once we arrived, we went into these 4 wheel drive trucks and started to climb the mountain. It was more rough than any time I have ever driven on the beach. The group we were with was fun, so the ride was awesome. Once we reached the area near the top, we got harnessed and got back in the trucks to go to the zip lines. It ended up being about 14 platforms, with cables that went up to 100 meters in length. The views were amazing. Zip lining through a rain forest is something I will probably never do again. We saw beautiful vegitation, and even some monkeys. It was unbelievable.
After we got back, the second group went. We hung out, and I even stole a nap on accident. I guess sleep finds out when you really need it. I got to have some really good conversation with people and really enjoyed it.
After the second group gotback, we decended and went to lunch. I got to talk to Fanelli and Wes which was nice. After lunch, Jen and I walked around Granada. It is a beautiful city, and we even saw a music festival happening. It was also good to walk and talk with her. I am really thankful to have her to help me through this.
We left Granada and started our drive back. What I thought would be a very quiet trip ended up being an amazing bonding experience. We put all of the names in a hat and then had to say something nice about the person you picked. I really think it brought the group closer together.
After finally arriving home, I decided to just turn in after dinner, because the real work starts tomorrow, and I know I will be in even worse shape if I am tired.
Tomorrow, sweat brigade checks in.
