Greetings from Ometepe

Hi all,
So today we left San Juan, and travelled  a bit north and west to Ometepe.
This is an island in Lake Nicaragua made up of two volcanoes with an isthmus joining the two.
The lake is the biggest in Central America, and the crossing took an hour.
We had an idea of where we wanted to stay, but when we got there it was not at all what we expected,  and we moved on.
The next little village we came to had one home stay, which wasn't great either, but as it was pouring rain, and we decided to stay for tonight and explore further tomorrow.
The room is a bit like a cement cell, and could do with a fresh coat of paint and  a bit of character.
Anyway, it's clean enough for the night, but we will be up and out early morning.
I will email you a photo of the island, taken as we were approaching.
Thats it for now
Love to all, Zak
