Huellas de Acahualinca - A site we checked out where these ancient footprints (dated to 7000 years ago) were excavated under 10metres of soil in 1874 by quarrying workmen.

After a 10 hour ride on a Tica bus we arrived into Nicaraguans capital Managua.
It didnt take us long to realise how dodgy it was when the lady at the hotel, a local walking down the street and then an american in a car all stopped us and told us to get a taxi or we would be robbed at gunpoint in the first 10 minutes of arriving there. The city itself was very dirty but had some cool sites from where the old city centre was before the big earthquakes.
The mercado central was massive where you could buy anything
