5 photo round up of what I saw/did this week.
Hope you all enjoy them.
The "Cathedral of Leon" is the largest Cathedral in Central America. I shot this while on top of the roof across from it. It is an amazing structure and beautiful inside.
School kids playing soccer in front of a mural of the revolution in Leon, Nicaragua. The mural quote says "Por La Libertad Hemos Luchado y Hoy Juramos Defenderla" "For Liberty We have Fought & Today We Promise to Defend it".
Volcano boarding on Volcano Cerro Negro near Leon, Nicaragua. Me goofing around a bit before actually going down and flipping over who knows how many times.
Made it to El Salvador land of the famous "Pupusas"!!! I can not get enough of them been here less than a week and have ate over 20 of them.
I have been on several "Chicken Buses" and know they fill them up, but none like this. It was an hour ride from San Martin to Suchitoto and I spent it standing up. This is what it looked like FULL yet they would still let more people on. It is funny how "Chicken Buses" just work.

Thanks Scott. The pupusas are topped with some type of slad that is drench in I have no clue what. Its so damn good. It taste even better because you have to eat them with your hands!!!

Thanks Elle & yes you should its fucking awesome!
Love the Cathedral , it just reminded me of this 200 year old Church I just saw in Jamaica too. Nice round up photos Jamie.
Thanks Sarah. Ahh I can’t get enough of churches such amazing structure with so much history.
Love the photo with the “mural” and then you volcano boarding. Was that the suit they made you wear to protect yourself from the rocky ground? The color choice is pretty out there haha.
Harrison recently posted..The Abode of Chaos- Art- Propaganda- or Both
Thanks Harrison! Yeah that suit is what they give you to protect yourself from the gravel in case you fall… like i did.
Great photo round up I especially like the volcano surfing. Was that a outfit they give you to protect yourself? And how in the world can you get that many people to actually fit on one bus.

Hey Kirk, yes that is the suit they give you to protect you and well it does a semi good job at it. Oh & about the bus I have no clue but at every stop more & more people just fit. Its crazy.
Did you get to go to the bell tower in Leon of the Cathedral? That was our highlight there for sure!
