Ringing in the new year with a bang in Nicaragua!

Tweet

I just recently moved to Nicaragua, and I'm glad I made the choice. The people are friendly, they really know how to have a good time, and of course I love a good party. For about $20 you can get enough fireworks to wage a mini world war III, big ones small ones, colored ones, plane ones, you name it they got it. And what a celebration! From the 7th of December all the way to January 1st there are fireworks starting at 6 in the morning and ending at midnight, every hour on the hour (there are bigger displays, but there are always fireworks going on throughout the various barrios). I can't wait to celebrate the new year.. I'm going to stock up on "Morteros" (GREAT big bangers ;) ) and get myself a cuban cigar to light them with and celebrate coming to Nicaragua wih a bang. On a side note: Here's to a prosperous new year and good health wishes to Daniel Ortega, Nicaraguas' President Elect
