Bienvenidos a Nicaragua

I have been in the country almost a whole hour now! Have not seen much other than what could be seen from the taxis window. Sandino's outline was there to meet me at the airport though and much red and black and "Viva [insert revolutionary hero here]" painted outside walls near shanty towns that smell like cumin. I am exhausted and feeling overwhelmed at the moment though, so the next Nicaraguan site I see is likely to be my bed.
