Hmm. It took me a little while to get used to this. There is currently a serious water shortage in most of Nicaragua, so this is the theme. If it's just plain pee leave it be, it's in round and brown, flush it down. It saves alot of water actually, if you think of how much you usually pee during the day. It makes your bathroom smell a little bit rank, but is a bathroom supposed to smell pretty? Seriously, it's a good idea.
The dogs. Ok so there is a ton of stray dogs here. But not stray like in the states, if you see a stray dog in the streets, everyone goes running away, or throws things at it..or worse. Here they are just another part of the community. They kind of laze around during the middle of the day and run about at night, barking at each other, sitting next to people looking for scraps of whatever they can get. Some of them are just plain dangerous looking, you kind of cross the street slowly when you see those, but most don't even pay attention to you and some are even really nice looking. I saw one today that I wanted to put in my bag.
One of the great things about this place is that I fit in, at least on first appearance more than any other place I have ever been. Except for the tattoo's.
Further to come.
