We sure do love that we live in a place that allow We sure do love that we live in a place that allows us the opportunity to see sunsets like this any night of the week. But we gotta tell ya, life in Nicaragua isn't always picture perfect or easy. Today our water reserve tank ran dry. For the second time in a month! 😠 To avoid having to pay another $50 USD for the water delivery truck to come problem solver Gordon had an idea. He suggested we siphon some water from our pool into the tank, so we could wash our dishes and flush our toilets. So that's what we did! Problem solved; for today at least. 🙃 Here's hoping that Enacal has fixed the issue and we wake up to a full tank of agua tomorrow! 🤞🏻 And if not, oh well, bucket showers aren't so bad! 💦🚿 🪣 . . . #innicanow #expatlife #sunset #nicaliving #sanjuandelsur #travel #explore #landscape #beautiful #sky #clouds #sunsetlover #instagood #nicaragua #malecon #beachlife #travelgram #discoverminicaragua
