Christmas Day

The last day Nneka’s host parents took me on a drive around the countryside outside of Managua.  We hit up several little towns and on the way I got some wonderfull scenic views:

They visited thier godson whose father is a farmer.  He grows, coffee, banannas and pineapples.  This region of Nicaragua is known as the Valley of the Pineapples.  Here is me with the farmer with my pineapple I picked myself as well as a view of the Pineapple Valley:

We also saw a Laguna whose water is kept warm by the volcanic activity.  This was Sandino’s favorite place to meditate:

Well what can I say about Las Veges that hasn’t been said?? I guess I’ll sum it up like a Mastercard visa commercal:

Partying at the Pure Nightclub with Watermelon maritnis: $0
Playing roulette: $200
Riding all the rides 1100 feet above the ground at the Stratosphere: $30
Dancing on stage at the Elton John concert: Priceless

And yes I said it…I went to Elton Johns concert and it was a kickass very trippyish concert:) Oh and Pam Anderson did a pole dance on stage while he played too. The conference gave us all free tickets worth $250…I was really close to sell it for more gambling money:)

I had a good time in Las vegas but I’m really happy to leave. My hotel room was awesome. I made some good contacts at the conference and I’m out. Here are some pics, put your mouse on top the pic for a description:

The lights of Vegas

I'm on top of the world!!
