Moving some files across a very thin VPN link to out India office (their WAN link is the actual problem)... less than 4gb and I hope it all gets there in 1 piece. If it goes well, I get to leave on time!
Winding down for the day. Trying to kill my iPhone so that I can charge it up before dinner. Convinced the wife to do a nice dinner out tonight. So thinking about hitting the Hotel Plaza colon.
What constitutes a nice dinner out there?
Tapas and wine out at a colonial mansion converted to a hotel on the central park with views of the cathedral.
Tripadvisor ranks it the best hotel in the country.

Depends. If you want "nice local food" then $5 - $10 a person. If you want NICE food, you are less than Red Lobster would be back home, but getting into American prices. So like the best seafood place in town for a big dinner for four with appetizers, drinks, meals, etc. is easily $80 and we hit $100 once.

The ChocoMuseum does an all you can eat traditional breakfast in a nice place buffet for $21 for four people (total.)

Downtown Granada (around the park) is all tourists. Mostly Managuans and Americans. So central Granada is all about foreigners getting high end food and stuff. Outside of downtime and the lake front strip, things are totally different.

Even at $5-10 a person, I take it the locals aren't eating at those places much if at all?

No, if I wanted to eat at a local place, a full (normal) breakfast is $2 tops.

@ryanov and I stopped at a local asada place one night, got two huge plates of amazing gallo pinto, two sodas and a take out plate of fried plantains for $3.
-
If you are not buying a soda, I bet you could do a small dinner (small but tasty) for maybe $.65.

Watching hellevator. This has to be the worst show ever created.

Is that the building maintenance version of Sharknado?

I have been kicked out of my "desk" so that the kids can play video games. Sitting on a lounge chair by the pool now.

For anyone who wonders, our "readers" on the site are DOUBLE normal today.
