Nicaragua, how are ya?
We’re in Esteli for the night and heading off to Grenada and Lake Nicaragua afterwards. Pictures and stories to follow, if we find a faster internet connection.
Our showerhead in Esteli. Remember hearing that electricity and water do not mix? Of course they do! If you want a warm shower, this is a good way to save energy because you do not heat up the entire tank of hot water. They work well, but they can be a little unnerving if you think about all of those ohms coursing through your body as you soap up. I think I remember hearing that it is not the volts that get you, it is the ohms.

Do fast internet connections exist south of the Rio Grande?

Yes, they are just usually in the fancy pants hotels. So we don´t know too much about them.

Holy crap, they had those horrible showerheads in Peru! They’re supposed to heat the water as it’s coming out, but doesn’t do shit, and sometimes even electrocutes your head!
