Last year, the International Surfing Association held their masters tournament right here in our neighborhood at Hacienda Iguana. I guess it was a complete mad house but it gave the area some great exposure, and helped to secure Nicaragua as a future destination for other surfing events. Well, this year they're back and Rancho Santana is hosting the Juniors event. The family headed over there a couple days ago for a little lunch and the place was buzzing. Rancho has an excellent restaurant that sits right above the shore. We're constantly impressed by their impeccable service and great, reasonably priced food. We're squeezing in as many visits as we can before the rivers fill up, and getting a little dinner becomes more like risking your life. The rains have certainly begun. Ian requested a raingage on my recent trip back to Minnesota and two nights ago it went over its five inch capacity mark. Drying laundry is a bit of a game, especially Liv's diapers which take forever. I'm constantly shifting them from the line on the covered balcony to the line in the yard or propping them up under the ceiling fan at night. The air is thick with moisture now. The afternoons are overcast and the nighttime is stormy. Winter in Nicaragua....
