Ometepe Island in Lake Nicaragua just amazed me. The active volcanoes of Concepcion and Maderas, which form it, are most picturesque from the ferry running between the island and the mainland. Visiting Ometepe on a scooter, I felt almost like the author of "Motorcycle Diaries". Life moves at a lazy rhythm here, and I delighted to let myself go along, savoring the little pleasures.
