river crossing


Every time it rains, this is the river that forms between me and my way out of Nejapa, the neighborhood where the office is. Nejapa is an interesting place...where on one side of the road large and beautiful houses overlook a sweet view of the Nejapa crater, and on the other side, families live in more humble conditions, sharing their patio space with all manner of chickens, dogs, pigs, and horses. Only in the last year was the road from the highway in to our office paved (although with the rain, pothols have quickly formed in many places). It's just as likely that giant cement trucks or horses and carts will pass my roommates and I as we walk in to work.
