EASTER
Each year, as spring brings rebirth and Easter, it awakens in believers of Easter an appreciation of the sacrifice and resurrection of Christ. Even if not a believer in the Easter message, please, take this opportunity to pause in gratitude for our lives and then vow to reach out in love and kindness to your fellow man during our short journey through this Earthly life. I thank my loyal subscribers, and pray this time will be special as well as memorable.-af

Security Message for U.S. Citizens: Managua (Nicaragua)
Caution on Renting and Driving Vehicles in Nicaragua 4/8/2014
The U.S. Embassy in Managua, Nicaragua encourages U.S. citizens to exercise caution when renting and driving vehicles in Nicaragua. The Embassy has encountered a significant increase in reports of U.S. citizens in rental cars having their belongings stolen from their vehicles while pulled over to change a flat tire. In some cases, U.S. citizens report that apparent “Good Samaritans” will pull over to assist them to change the tire, and while distracted, another party will enter the vehicle and steal valuable items. The Embassy encourages U.S. citizens to travel in groups when possible, keep belongings out of sight and locked away while driving, and be extremely cautious of any offers to provide assistance.
