Before we came down here I did not know where Los Cedros was... in Nicaragua, somewhere near Managua. I figured that would be easy, type "Los Cedros" in Google maps and wha-la, presto Los Cedros would appear out of nowhere. Google found Los Cedros but not where it was supposed to be. After extensive search through the internet I found a Los Cedros on a Nicaraguan governmental map. Great, now back to Google maps and pinpoint Los Cedros. The town did not exist and worse, where it should be zooming in (for satellite view), was only a blurred area. So much for finding out where and what the town looked like.
A week or so ago I just happened to be looking around Nicaragua on Google maps and thought I would check again around where Los Cedros should be. What !! Google updated their maps and found Los Cedros! We were lost in Nicaragua, but now we are found. Zooming in, I saw the main highway, the town with many streets (muddy of course), the school we live at and even the house we are staying in. So I posted a few photos, so you can get an idea where we are. (click to enlarge)
