Adios Nica- Our favorite photos

February 13, 2013

I was truly devastated to leave Nicaragua- it is a place that has burrowed itself deep into my heart.  Justin, I know was sad to leave because he became so enamored of the local rice and beans dish - Gallo Pinto.  For me,  the Jamaican version "Rice and Peas" made with coconut milk and not fried will always be the superior dish.  It's not the food I'll miss- it's the folks. 

We had the chance to tour the whole country- with workshops and concerts in Managua, Leon, Masatepe and Mayagalpa. 

Here are some of my favorite photos from Nica.

The Beautiful Colonial City of Leon-  Hotttttt

At Volcan Masaya-  This is the future album cover for Drew's gospel album "Flatbush Faith"

Gray's first Coco on a Volcano-  big moment

It took days to get the sulfur taste out of our mouths...worth it

The view from my Microphone at the soundcheck in Mayagalpa- that's Sandino standing in the back.
