=What information can you tell us about Nicaragua? Information we are looking for:= =*interesting facts= they don't have street names they use point instead(2HM) They have their own system of no street names!!!(5MP) They don't usally use the directions East and West(2TW) Nicaragua uses arriba for east and abajo for west 3ks- they do not have refrence points any more ks-ces to see they dont have street names or #s they tell where to go from a certain point (HW KF P8) =*things to do= =*celebrations/festivals= =*traditions= =*historic events= =*famous people from here and why they are famous= =*why they speak Spanish= =*any other information you think we should know about Nicaragua= i would get lost real fast there(JH) I think if I were to visit there I would get lost really fast. I think the most confusing part is knowing what way south or west is, or the face that they don't tell you in miles, they tell you in blocks!
