Landing in Managua, Nicaragua



We stayed at our new friend Henry's home in Managua the first & last night.

Then we took the in-country flight to Puerto Cabezas by the Caribbean Sea.



 

 

Next, we endured the dreaded 5-hour truck ride!





 





We made it to Waspam, the town we stayed in during the week.  It's a remote town in the northeastern Nicaragua, virtually cut off from the rest of the country.  The local airport had been closed for over 1 year.

 

 Finally, we made it to Kisalaya, the Miskito Indian village where we continue to serve them & strive to make a difference in their lives.

Kisalaya pictures are in the

next column.

We literally jumped onto the plane & said our "hello's" to the others, pulled out of the terminal & headed for Nicaragua. 

Our final destination was the remote village of Kisalaya, in the northeastern area of the country.  Kisalaya is just one of many Miskito Indian villages up & down the Rio Coco River, all virtually cut off from the rest of the country. 



Here are random pictures of the Kisalaya people as we spent several days with them.

(The left column shows pictures of us traveling from Managua to Kisalaya.  Did we tell you it takes a while to get there?)
