The view from the restaurant/bar at Pelican Eyes Resort:
It's been a mix of incredibly stressful and completely wonderful the last five days. We feel lucky, excited, and motivated to live here, but we're definitely still fighting with two airlines to get us our luggage. For now, we've taken to buying cheap street clothes and hand-washing our chonies. Eek! (It is what it is.. Whattaya gonna do). Apparently, our bags are now in Managua as of this morning and should be delivered to us by 3 pm today. Thank goodness!!
On the awesome side of things, we found where we'll be staying for the month of June! A two-bedroom villa in Pelican Eyes Resort. The manager of our current rental in Congo Hills connected us with the owner of this villa inside the resort. Includes gorgeous interior design, wifi, a generator for black-outs, a workspace, monkeys above us in the mango trees, maid service and 24-hour security. All for under $1200 a month. Not to mention we're in view of the pacific. It's exactly what we were looking for and more. We move in on Tuesday!

This past weekend, we spent time getting to know the town. Every beach around here is different; Playa Remanso is small, rocky and serves great coffee, Playa Marsella is relaxing and low-key and Playa Madera is the surfer's spot that bumps reggae and island music and sells tacos. All are beautiful!
