My destination for this evening was Ometepe, an island in Lake Cocibolca which was created by two volcanoes, Concepcion and Maderas. To say it was a challenging travel day would be an understatement. My 2:30 PM ferry reservation was bumped (the ferry company said they needed to send one of their own cars to the island). This forced me onto a later one which did not arrive until the sun was just setting. While this afforded me nice light for the photo above, it also meant that I would make the one-hour drive to my lodging in Merida at night. It should be noted that there are no street lights, no reflectors or lights on bicycles, unmarked speed bumps, and all manner of animals on the road (small pigs and dogs are the hardest to see but dark-haired horses are a close second.) When I arrived, the electricity lasted just long enough for the friendly staff to make me a fresh fruit smoothie which I enjoyed more than I can say.
