First visit to Parque Luis Alfonso

Parque Luis Alfonso is Managua's big children's park.  It gets its name from a boy who supported the Sandinista revolution in the 1970s and was killed by Somoza's national guard. The park includes several playground areas, different athletic fields and courts, some small rides for children and a splash park. Very nice place.

Silas climbs.

Instead of gravel or mulch, this area has volcanic rock.  Don't trip. (Lia learned the hard way.)


 Best part of our new "Rainbow Park" - the splash park area!

 Soft serve at "Nice Cream" in the park.

 Lia cuts and pastes; Silas joins us in the living room and enters a second stage of his nap time.


The front patio

 Apparently gates are for climbing and jumping off.

Lia and Silas's room. They were putting socks on hands and feet to go "scuba diving."
