Well I broke down and rented a truck for a few days. Toured the highlands where they make the best coffee in the world. It is high in the mountains and the coffee I sampled was the best I ever had! On our way further north we stopped in at Selva Negra which is a finca that is owned by a family that immigrated to Nicaragua in the late 1800´s. It was like visiting Barvaria with all the chalets and gardens. wiener snitzel was even on the menu. The food was excelent, a walk around was cool and refreshng. Everything at this place was designed around no waste and ecological sustainability. All the food is organic.
After our lunch and tour we headed for San Rafael Norte where we wanted to visit the museum of Sandino´s wife however it was clsed. A tour of the local cathedral was surprising, one of the most beautiful churches I have ever been in. The wall murals and painted celings were inspiring.
After the church tour we headed back towards Esteli towards a road that Eddy Kuhl, the owner f Hotel de Montana Selva Negra recommended, he said I may have to use the 4 wheel drive but the view was inspiring. On our way out of San Rafael we picked up 4 women hitch hiking and gave them a lift about 10 miles out of town.
