Wonderful photos... Congratulations... I am now almost 65, an old-age pensioner,but I have fond memories of visiting Santa Teresa in 1969,during my year of voluntary service overseas. I was driven at weekends from Managua to Santa Teresa by Dr.Humberto Cortes Cruz and we developed a project of educational theatre for young people in the village. I have now decided to celebrate my birthday by returning to Nicaragua after a lifetime and plan to spend all of March 2012 in the land of lakes and volcanoes. I hope very much I shall be able to fit in a visit to dear Santa Teresa......... Un saludo cordial, Anthony Weaver, London, England
