Lago Coatepeque

Last weekend, we spent twenty-four hours at Lago Coatepeque as a "thank you weekend" to Peggy, Rosa, and Eva for their friendship and hospitality.  It was difficult to tear Peggy away from her busy life but thankfully we were all able to relax and enjoy each others company.

Rosa on the jet ski
When we saw the man on his jet ski, Rosa said that every time she's been to the beach she wonders what it feels like to ride a jet ski.  She says that she has always wanted to do so.  The man was selling jet ski rides for $3.  So Rosa's dream came true.

The house that Jack built.  We sat on this dock and relaxed before dinner.  Then returned after dinner and they had built a new guest room on the doc!  THREE HOURS!  They built this room in three hours!  Needless to say, it wasn't sealed very well or at all.  I'm sure the first guests who stayed in the room that night were hoping the rain wouldn't come.  It didn't.  Gotta love people who have a vision and go for it.
