Pictures for Your Enjoyment

The most common suggestion for improving this blog has been to include more pictures! This makes perfect sense, and I thank all of you who have noticed this lack. The fact of the matter is that I couldn't figure out how to insert the pictures successfully, but I think it has finally been mastered. So just to keep you interested, here is a sampling of the wonderful places and people of Nicaragua. I'll be inserting more pictures in previous posts as well to illustrate the topcs discussed! Enjoy!
