Benny Baker, our host on this trip, is fond of saying that the key to survival in Nicaragua is found in the word "flexible." I do believe he is right. Yesterday did not go exactly as planned, but it was good, nonetheless. We are still waiting for word on the wireless access availability. Today we are looking at the room the computers will be housed in.
We are also running into just a bit of fear here from the other Internet cafes. They would rather not have any competition. In fact, it is ironic that I am typing this while at one of those Internet cafes. We plan on reassuring them that we are not competition, but rather more of training site. Internet access will be much more limited on our part than they currently have, so they should not fear us.
One last note. You may have noticed that I have written this entire entry without contractions. That is mainly because I have not yet found the apostrophe key on these Spanish keyboards. :-) More later ...
