A couple of years earlier I'd hatched a plan to import hammocks from Nicaragua with the idea of selling them wholesale to retailers in and around Toronto. So Elenka and I flew down to Liberia, then climbed onto a bus and eventually made our way to the village of Masaya, Nicaragua. Once there we found a hammock maker and consummated the deal. It was a business that worked well ... that was until I realized that I don't really like selling things.
We spent the balance of the week at Marc's Place down on Playa Hermosa.
