Journal Notes:
- Flew past Masaya Volcana National Park as I headed out of Managua and about to cross Lake Nicaragua.
- Out in the Lake, flew past Concepcion and Maderas Volcanos.
- Fun to visit the location our mission trip of 2014 to Casa Luz in San Jose.
- refuel and top up oil on arrival.
- AME says it's time to inspect engine.  Changed oil filter.  'Like new' again.
- In RW, nice dump of snow!  The Toro is a beast.
