Tipitapa, Nicaragua

These are my first photos of my trip to Nicaragua. One of the first places I went to (aside from residing in the capital city, Managua, with my family) is Tipitapa, a relatively small city not far from the capital. Specifically, I went to the natural hot springs located there. It is a quaint location with plenty of vegetation and a "steam" room produced by the hot springs below. It was a nice and relaxing day and merely the beginning of my adventure...

Frosty

California, aren't we famous for our lovely weather? I suppose that is true for Southern California but Northern California is another story. Although, this winter is certainly colder than most (as far as I can remember). It even snowed in Sacramento! I didn't get a chance to actually see the snow because it had already melted by the time I woke up but I did get some photos of the frost. So I know these are a little late (they were taken December 9th) but I have been so busy with finals and getting ready for my trips. So these are the last photos I leave you with this year! I won't be updating my blog with photos until the new year.
I hope everyone has a Happy Holiday and New Year!
