I have to agree with you this really is what travel is all about. I loved Granada even more because of the Traca Traca and that it was able to make me talk with so many people. I got a bit better but not amazing like the kid.
That kid is good. I’d be happy to learn how to make it traca traca traca. I bet it’ll be a good conversation starter no matter where you end up.

Yeah Mike the kid is amazing and well I have put them away for now because most people look at me like what the fuck am I doing. I know it annoys alot of people and I dont wanna be the one that annoys the locals.
I had one of those things! I’ll take you on Jaime!

Lauren recently posted..Why choose to travel solo
How come everyone had one but not me. I just dont get it…lol!!! Remember practice makes perfect!!!
I didn’t get a chance to practise much! I had to throw mine away because once I tried too violently and hit myself in the face giving me a nose bleed LOL!!!
Lauren recently posted..Why choose to travel solo
Oh yes I can see how that could happen. These things can even be used as a weapon.

So wow this is a world wide toy… how cool is that. Yeah I wanna get as good as that kid. Its going to take a lot of work, but one day.
For the picture you need to sign up for a gravatar. It is free. Ill tweet ya details.
i remember playing with the same kind of toy (only way smaller) here in manila… cool that they also have that in other countries…
I guess this game is universal, that is awesome to know.
Great post!! I used to play with the tracas in Mexico as a child too and seeing the kids in Nicaragua brought great childhood memories =)

No wonder you are as good as me with out much practice…lol!!!
Man, I haven’t mastered it yet when I moved to Costa Rica. Too late, nobody play that here. People will be too annoyed with the noise if I practice it… Do I miss my chance?

That is how I feel, I have stopped playing alot because no onw plays them. I dont want to be the one that annoys people…lol!!!
I love that you got to interact with the kids so much — what an ice breaker it turned out to be, not just with kids, but with everyone 🙂
Glad you got to spend so much time with Dina and Ryan too!

We had those in Mississippi when I was growing up. I loved them.
I can’t wait to play with them again when I go home. They are so much fun!!! Were you any good at it? I’m horrible.
