No pictures, buuuut..

Update time. Internet is too slow to get photos on here.

So, Im still alive.. horray!! Once more still kickin the mule of death in the face with my dirty leather hiking boots.

Things Ive done recently:
Rode from the town of Masaya to Granada, where I stayed in a HOSTEL for 2 nights. It was a nice break.... a break, from, eh, taking a break.
Took a boat 4 hours from Granada to the Island of Ometepe, where I stayed on beaches hostels for 1 week.. another break, from breaking.
Took a boat 10 hours overnight from Ometepe to San Carlos, and the Costa Rican border.. thats right! Im about 200m from the Costa Rican border! Too bad its in the form of a big murky river.

Other things Ive done recently:
Noticed that chicks actually do dig guys with scruffy hair, beards, and bikes.
Not showered.
Not cut my hair in any way, shape, or form.
Swam a very long ways, until the nearest shore was moderately hazy..
Swam naked.
Met people from pretty much everywhere on the planet.
Walked alone down streets of a town Id never been to, pushing my bike and making loud chicken noises.
Howled at howler monkeys.
Climbed large trees.
Climbed a volcano.
Again realized that Im riding a very large distance, by myself, and I love every meter of it.

More on the volcano that I climbed.. I climbed it on the island, Ometepe. It was absolutly beautiful. There was no ash-filled crater at the top, with hot boiling mud and lava... it was forest. Dense, thick, wet forest. Green, muddy, with trees interwinding, roots you can climb up, fallen trees with other tree splurting out of them.. it was, in fact, very much a BC coastal forest. I loved it so much. How great it felt to be in a forest like that. It was beautiful.
Very much BC except for: Volcano, double the humidity, spanish, and ridiculus amounts of tropical wildlife such as leafcutter ants and howler monkeys and parrets and frogs.

Anyways, gotta fly.

Keep the love juice flowin, just remember to change your pants when you´re done.
