We spent half the night trying to save Ramon’s Village Resort on Ambergris Caye from total loss. We awoke the next morning to witness the devastation that the fire bestowed on the resort. However, I am proud to say that the efforts from the community did manage to save almost 50 percent of the resort. The owner...

Granada’s Central Park

Tony Scopel Posted onMarch 14, 2014May 27, 2019 Central America, Central Park, Granada, Nicaragua, Travel Comments are off

The city of Granada combines old world with new. You never know what you will see on these historic city streets. We easily found Los Patios, the hotel we had reserved online. It’s a unique little five suite boutique hotel set in a quiet neighborhood approximately five blocks from Granada’s Central Park. It doesn’t look like much from the...

Cemeteries, Cigars and Sightseeing in Granada

One of the first attractions we saw as we pulled into Granada’s city limits was the Cementerio de Granada (Cemetery of Granada). It was established in 1830 after Spain granted Nicaragua its independence. As we approached the main entrance, a craftsman who stood at his makeshift workbench with his chisels and hammer gave us a pleasant nod. He...
