A quiet night in Leòn, Nicaragua

I left Utila on Friday meeting the 2 Irish lads at 6am for the ferry from Utila. 90 minutes later we work back on the mainland and then we headed to the bus terminal to continue our journey. A 6 hour bus later to the capital and on the way we had recruited 3 more people to our fellowship, 2 blokes and a bird. Our numbers swelled to 6 we jumped cabs in the Tegucialpa to get on our 2nd bus a 3 hour beast down bumpy roads. 17 hours after we started we had arrived in Leon and gotten the hell out of the way of the level 5 Hurricane that was threatening to turn Honduras into a rainy wet hell hole.

We deposited our bags and descended on the town, partying in a local dance club until 2 in the morning putting back a number of 1 dollar bottled (and tasty) beers.

Today we were all moving a little slow and explored the town at little more then a saunter, however, we managed to get all the sights in and tomorrow we head south.

Not much of a story, but thought I should bring you up to speed on my latest location.
