On September 14th we celebrated our 15th anniversary of our first marriage. Our "wedding" anniversary is in June (long story) but we like to celebrate twice a year anyway and that way if we forget our anniversary we get another chance. But I digress, since we are in Nicaragua this year we also get to share our anniversary with Nicaraguan Independence Day. The celebration was pretty low key by American standards but it was a fun day to experience.
The kids got to play on the beach and even though it was a National holiday, the beaches weren't too crowded. The kids played in the waves and the sand.
There were street vendors out and the Parque Central and lots of people to watch the dance troops.
The parade with all the school kids was fun to watch. Each school in San Juan del Sur was represented at the parade.
There were marching bands in the parade as well.
