Here is to girl power, and to my free spirited, free-diving daughters, who can now swim to depths of 4 to 6 meters deep (12 to 20 feet). Words cannot express how magical it is to see my little mermaids glide through the water. My body fat is such, that I am positively buoyant anymore, and no longer can achieve these depths without weights. My 8 and 10 year old daughters constantly remind my wife and I, why our choice to leave the U.S. for more untamed pastures was indeed the best decision we ever made. Elise's friend Lia came out for a quick visit to Nicaragua so we opted to relax at Laguna de Apoyo. My kiddos just adore Lia and wish she lived closer.
Laguna de Apoyo is a special reserve where powerboats are not allowed and has crystal clear water with incredible visibility. The many tropical birds and monkeys provide stimulation in case one does too much thinking about nonsensical issues.
