Nicaragua Beaches Gaining Popularity Among Busy Americans
Publish Date : 11/7/2004 10:17:00 AM Source : Advertising and Business News

Tico Travel, long known for its tours to Costa Rica, announced today it is

expanding its Nicaraguan operations by offering additional tours to the

Central American country. A list of new packages is on the tour company’s

website, www.ticotravel.com.

In a related development, the Central American regional airline Grupo TACA

recently announced it has permanently reduced its fares as much as 50 percent

for destinations in Central America and Mexico. The price reduction will

affect fares for flights between Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala,

Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Belize and Mexico.

Tico Travel says a growing number of customers like Sean Keating, a bond

trader in New York City, are choosing Nicaragua.

When Keating was trying to decide where to spend his precious vacation days

this year, he wanted to go somewhere off the beaten path but not spend a day

getting there.

Keating, who works in the high-pressure world of bond-trading in downtown

Manhattan, wanted to get far away from the busy streets of New York. He

decided due to its proximity to the US to go someplace in Latin America, but

he found many of the tour companies offered packages to the same standard

list of locations.

Then he heard about Nicaragua.

“I never considered Nicaragua but the more I heard about it, the more it

sounded like what I was looking for. All I remember was what I heard as a kid

about the revolution, but once I went, I am really glad I did,” said Keating.

“It is unlike anyplace I have ever been. They have authentic colonial towns,

really active volcanoes, and the beaches are like out of a movie. I even

learned to surf on a beach where we did not see anyone else for three days.

The Nicaraguan people are super friendly and the tourists you meet there are

different too.

Most have traveled to places all over the world but they all love Nicaragua.”

Keating is not alone. With virgin beaches, low prices and its close proximity

to the United States, Central America as a whole has become more popular with

American tourists. But until recently, Nicaragua was one of those often left

off the list of countries tour operators were offering to their clients.

Keating did, however, find Tico Travel (www.ticotravel.com) and

CentralAmerica.com, companies owned in whole or in part by brothers Steve and

Rob Hodel, who offer tours and packages to Nicaragua and are expanding this

part of their growing tour business.
Rob Hodel first traveled to Nicaragua in 1987 from Costa Rica despite the

ongoing civil war.

“I was young and invincible then, and was invited to a party in Managua so I

went from Costa Rica by bus. It was not the best idea, so I was lucky that it

was not worse,” he added. Hodel gives few details of his adventure 17 years

ago other than to say his guardian angel was with him. But today, he is very

bullish on Nicaragua.

“After I got out in 1987 I swore I would never go back and now I own two

houses in Granada,” he said.

As a specialist on Costa Rica and Central America, Rob Hodel now travels

year-round throughout the region, dropping in unannounced on hotels and tour

operators that are part of his Tico Travel network.

In the year 2000 Hodel was visiting Nicaragua again to check on progress of

their destinations there when he made the leap from visitor and tour operator

to homeowner.

“I was visiting some friends in Granada and was very impressed with the

progress. I could see it had really turned a corner and I wanted in,” said

Hodel. “I could not decide between two houses but since they were such a

bargain, I bought them both. I made 30 trips by car from my house in Costa

Rica and spent nine months restoring one home in the traditional way. It was

a great experience.”

The town of Granada is a designated World Heritage Site by the United

Nations. Most homes have tile roofs 30-foot high and three-foot thick walls

with charming indoor courtyards. As the oldest city in the Americas, Granada

is like a museum in and of itself, and has seen more than its share of

marauding pirates, privateers and revolutions. Most of the homes in Granada

were in poor shape just four years go, but there is a revival going, partly

due to foreigners like Hodel who are helping bring them back to life.

The experience also gave Hodel a chance to become familiar with what

Nicaragua has to offer and develop relationships with those working in the

tourism sector.

Hodel’s expertise has also made him a valuable resource for the region. Hodel

has just returned from Nicaragua after a consulting assignment with Carana

Corporation, a leader in economic development throughout the world. Carana is

working under contract with US AID in Nicaragua to promote the huge potential

in the tourism sector.

Hodel says there are a number of unknown positives about the country that

deserve notice. For example, in just the past couple of years 43 private

nature reserves have been created in Nicaragua and nearly 20 percent of the

country’s land is protected by law.

“For investors, the incentives could not be better, and for visitors the

value is enormous, so it’s just a matter of time before it’s the next Costa

Rica,” he said. “The only difference is that Nicaragua does not have to

attract tourists all the way from the United States like Costa Rica did,

Nicaragua just has to get them to come over the border from Costa Rica to

take a peak.”

Hodel should know. He and his brother Steve were pioneers in the Costa Rica

travel business when they started Tico Travel more than 10 years ago and have

witnessed Costa Rica evolve from being confused with Puerto Rico to the most

popular destination in the region. He also says that some of his oldest

customers of Tico Travel are now mixing Nicaragua into their visits to Costa

Rica.

“Its not that they don’t enjoy Costa Rica as much as they are nostalgic for

the days when there was nobody else on the beaches and you rarely saw another

tourist.”

According to Hodel, this probably won’t last very long. Several hoteliers

with properties in Costa Rica have already set up shop in Nicaragua and more

are on the drawing board. For anybody contemplating traveling to or investing

in Nicaragua, Hodel has this advice.
“If you want are looking for an authentic experience right in your own

backyard, then the time to visit Nicargua is now.”

*Costa Rican Band Big Hit in Colorado!

Latin American musicians become regulars in Summit

BY KIMBERLY NICOLETTI
November 7, 2004


BRECKENRIDGE - After the smashing success of Costa Rican band Pimienta

Negra's three shows last month, Cecilia's has decided to bring more Latin

American bands to Breckenridge.

Cecilia's will offer salsa and merengue night every Wednesday, with dance

lessons at approximately 8 p.m. and music around 10 p.m.

While other bars have done the same throughout the years, they haven't gone

so far as to fly musicians from Costa Rica and other Latin American countries

to Summit to play. But that's exactly what Cecilia's intends to do.

The idea began as a happy accident when Keystone resident Diego Piedra, who's

originally from Costa Rica, found out one of his favorite bands, Pimienta

Negra, was touring in the States. He booked it for a three-night stint - one

at Cecilia's and two at the Goat, and both bars had better-than-expected

turnout.

About 160 people - 100 of which were Latin Americans that drove from as far

as Boulder and Vail - heated up Cecilia's for the first show. About 110

showed up the next night at the Goat in Keystone and requested the band a

second night, where 145 people showed, Piedra said.

So when Piedra offered to bring up more bands from Costa Rica, Cecilia's

owner Jeff Cox agreed to host them.

Piedra hopes to start a production company that promotes bands from Latin

America in the United States. He also wants to bring local and regional

bluegrass and rock bands down to Costa Rica to perform.

"The way people get excited about Latin American music up here is the same

way people from Costa Rica would react if we bring them down there," Piedra

said.

So far, Piedra has seven Costa Rican bands in mind. He says his connection

with travel agents will help defray flight costs, and as far as booking

bands, Costa Rican bands will play for about $1,500, which is what many bar

owners pay for Denver bands, Piedra said.

"Seeing the turnout from the last live shows (convinced me)," Cox said.

"Right now, no one's really playing world music, and a lot of people here

from Latin America don't have a venue to go to. I saw a lot of faces we

haven't seen here before - they were a little bit older, and there was more

couple-dancing."

Though Barkley's hosts a salsa and merengue night on Thursdays, Piedra claims

the music caters to Mexican-American tastes.

"The Mexican community is bigger than the Latin American community up here,

and they have different tastes when it comes to music," Piedra said. "Most

people from Latin America go to Denver because you can't find Latin American

music here. The instruments they use in Mexican music are a lot noisier; it's

drums and tuba and chorus oriented. Latin American music is easier to dance

to. You hear piano, bass and one lead singer."

Cox hopes to bring in a live band every other week at Cecilia's salsa and

merengue nights. When he doesn't have a band, a DJ will spin Latin American

music.

Kencuba, a 12-piece Latin American band based in Denver, will kick off the

programming Wednesday. Three of the singers are from Colombia, and four of

the musicians are from the Dominican Republic.

Then Piedra will begin bringing bands residing in Costa Rica, beginning with

the return of Pimienta Negra in December.

"We're going to try to bring all of the bands from down there up here,"

Piedra said.

Though the bands drew a large Latin American population, Piedra said most of

the good feedback he heard came from Americans. And he plans to keep pleasing

both populations -every Wednesday.

*Rights Group Closes Costa Rica Base

By Associated Press

November 5, 2004, 7:52 PM EST

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica -- A U.S.-based children's rights organization said

Friday it will close its Costa Rica office in the wake of a sex scandal

involving its local director.

Bruce Harris, the Central America director of Casa Alianza, a branch of

Covenant House, was fired in September after the group said he admitted
to paying for sex with a 19-year-old Honduran who had once been a resident
at one of the group's shelters.

The organization said in a news released that it decided to close the
office as of Nov. 15, and use funds that went into it to help children in

crisis shelters throughout Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua.

Covenant House's Casa Alianza branch has operations throughout the
region. Employees in Central American and Mexico will deal directly
with offices in New York from now on, the release said.

The organization's mission is to help street children and denounce cases
of sexual abuse against minors. The Costa Rica office opened in 1993.


*Calderón Back In Court Today

Following his brief stay in hospital and return to his jail cell, former

president Rafael Angel Calderón, will return to court this morning to pick up

where his hearing left off on Thursday following his ill health.

At 8:30 this morning, the former president will again be in the Goicochea

courthouse where he is appealing the order to be kept in preventive detention

in La Reforma, wanting his detention changed to house arrest.

At the hearing, he is expected to face his co-conspirators at the Caja

Costarricense de Seguro Social (CCSS) who have pointed the finger at Calderón

being the key person in the Fischel-CCSS scandal that has seen several public

functionaries and businessmen in preventive detention or house arrest.

Principally, Eliseo Vargas, former president of the CCSS, Walter Reiche

Fischel, president of the Fischel Corporation, Gerardo Bolaños (Calderón's

law firm partner), and Juan Carlos Sánchez are expected to give their

testimony.

Preventive detention is applied to those accused of crimes so that they

cannot evade justice by fleeing the country or hiding out and/or so as not to

impede the judicial investigation. In normal circumstances, the accused can

be held in a penal institution for up to 18 months, with period reviews by

the court, after which time, the prosecutor has to present formal charges,

followed by a trial or let the accused free.

Former president Calderón has been in preventive detention since October 22,

accused of conspiracy and illegal enrichment and is being held at the La

Reforma prison, Costa Rica's largest prison, for his own security.

Meanwhile, another former president, Miguel Angel Rodríguez, sits only some

metres away from Calderón in another jail cell on similar charges in the

ICE-Alcatel scandal. The two former presidents cannot communicate with each

other and have their 'outside' varied so as to avoid any possible contact.

The former president's visitor schedule is also different and separate from

the other inmates, prison officials saying it is for their own protection and

not to cause any disturbances with other inmates in the prison.



*Prison Scares Daddy
By Douglas Montero and Jeane MacIntosh
New York Post

The young son of a convicted New York con man who's on the lam in Costa Rica

said his father will never surrender to authorities because he can't handle

the stiff jail sentence.

"He said it would be a long time in jail," Edward Lurie, 14 - son of fugitive

fraudster Brett Lurie, 44 - told The Post of his dad's refusal to turn

himself in.

Edward spoke from the Costa Rican beachside home where he and his brother,

Jesse, 13, live virtually alone - abandoned by their ex-hooker stepmother and

in the care of an erstwhile nanny - while their dad dodges capture.

Brett Lurie was convicted of scamming a Queens co-op in 1994. After

convincing a sentencing judge in 2001 that he needed more time to sort out

matters with his sons, the feckless father, who'd raised the boys after

splitting with their mother years before, spirited them out of the country.

U.S. officials have an extradition warrant and are determined to "bring in"

the scammer, who's set up a swank new life, replete with stunning, $1

million-plus beachfront and mountain hideaways guarded by dogs.

Meanwhile, his two boys live an "independent" life, full of uncertainty as to

when they'll see their dad again, Edward said.

Their lives hinge on his daily phone calls, which Lurie always ends with the

words "Behave yourself - I love you," Edward said. "Living this way helps us

become more independent," reasons the articulate, mature teen.

Nevertheless, the U.S. Embassy, which has "legal responsibility" for the

boys' safety, just launched a "welfare and whereabouts" probe into their

plight, said spokeswoman Elaine Samson. "They are American citizens and

minors," she said. "Our concern is whether they are being adequately taken

care of, and who is the legal guardian of these children."

The embassy also alerted Costa Rica's national child-welfare agency, which

has legal jurisdiction over the kids' well-being, Samson said. The embassy's

involvement was triggered by a Post investigation of Lurie's whereabouts,

during which a reporter discovered the boys were fending for themselves -

taking a taxi to school and eating meals alone in restaurants - as their dad

ducks the law and their stepmother left for another country



*Time To Pay The Marchamo

Monday November 15 at 8:00am, the Instituto Nacional de Seguros (INS), will

begin it's annual collection the payment of the "marchamo" for the country's

registered 808.360 vehicles.

This year the marchamo or the right to circulate a vehicle on public roads

for 2005 will not increase very much from last year. The insurance portion of

the cost of the marchamo will stay the same, as most of the other costs that

include, payment to the Consejo de Seguridad Vial, PANI and a municipal tax.

Also, this is the time when the government is able to collect any unpaid

traffic fines imposed against the vehicle, including parking fines. Traffic

fines against the driver are collected on license renewal if the driver has

not paid.

The marchamo can be paid at any bank or insurance office authorized to

collect the payment and is due not later than December 31, 2004. After that

date, there will be a grace period for payment, though interest will be

charged. After the grace period, drivers will face a ¢20.000 colones fine for

driving without the marchamo and the possible impounding of the vehicle.

To renew your marchamo, you will be required to present the vehicle's

registration and the Riteve vehicular inspection certificate and the

appropriate payment.

If paid early, the whole process is done in minutes. Come the last week in

December, the traditional period for most, the lines can be long and can take

as much as an hour or more to pay.

An example of the costs for this year's marchamo are:
- 1989 Jeep Cherokee - ¢39.621 (us$87.65)
- 1992 Nissan - ¢34.341 (us$75.91)
- 2004 Nissan - ¢234.861 (us$519.60)
- 1999 Adly Scooter - ¢39.155 (us$86.62)

If you want to know how you are to pay on your vehicle(s), you can call the

the INS at 800MARCHAM (800 627 6426) or go online at

http://portal.ins-cr.com/csoa/.



*Only 67.000 Cellular Lines Left

Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE) announced that it has only

67.000 cellular telephone lines available and once those are gone, it will be

one to two years before it can offer new cellular lines.

ICE says it has about 50.000 TDMA and 17.000 GSM lines available to

subscribers. The GSM lines are part of lines that have been returned to ICE

for non payment by customers and will be available on the marked the first

week in December.

Orlando Cascante Moraga, an ICE director for mobile communications, says that

the institution expects a high demand for service in December. The last time

ICE offered GSM lines for sale, all 15.000 lines were bought up in only one

week. In the case of TDMA lines, 17.000 lines were taken in the last six

weeks.

The difference between the two systems is speed of transmitting data. GSM is

better for sending images, fotos and surfing the internet, though these

services are not available as yet on the current GSM service ICE offers. TDMA

on the other hand is great for cellular customer who just want to talk and

send and receive text messages.

ICE has available 990.000 cellular telephone lines - 590.000 TDMA and 400.000

GSM, which were installed by the French telecommunications firm Alcatel.

Alcatel has been implicated in offering "pay offs" to public functionaries,

which has resulted in the preventive detention of former president Miguel

Angel Rodríguez and Edgar Valverde, former president of Alcatel in Costa

Rica. Several other public functionaries are being investigated and are under

house arrest. And former José María Figueres Olsen had to leave his post at

the World Economic Forum last week when it was discovered that he had been

paid a us$900.000 consulting fee from Alcatel.

ICE had planned on installing 600.000 new GSM cellular lines this December in

a contract with the Ericsson company, worth us$130 million dollars and

overturned in September by the Contraloría General de la Republica

(Comptroller's office), that would have been available for sale no later than

March of 2005. ICE was forced to cancel it's contract with Ericsson.

The Contraloría said no to the deal after it was revealed that several high

ranking ICE officials had met privately in Prague, Czech Republic, with the

president of Ericsson and questions were raised over expenses incurred by ICE

managers, including their hotel stay, was paid by Ericsson.

The cancellation of the contract by ICE is currently before the

Constitutional Court, Sala IV, after an appeal was made by Ericsson, which is

putting the process of tendering a new contract on hold, which according to

ICE, will take 18 months.

Once the current cellular lines are used up and until a new contract is

awarded and installed, customers have to wait until a line becomes available,

usually for non payment or in the case a customer voluntarily cancels their

service.


*Season Change Underway

The change from the "rainy season" to the "dry season" has begun. And with

that comes lots of rain, strong winds and cold temperatures.

According to the weatherman, the Instituto Meteorológico Nacional (IMN), the

change has begun.

The cold front will literally start in the Caribbean side, move inwards to

the Central valley and to the Pacific Coast. During the change, the rains

will be more intense and for longer periods and temperatures will drop

drastically.

Last night it rained throughout the entire night in most of the Central

Valley.

The changeover can last from two to three weeks and the IMN is warning those

living in high flood and mud slide areas to take the necessary precautions

during the period.



*Coco Gets Land For New School

By Zoraida Diaz , The Beach Times

It’s taken four years, dozens of meetings and countless more appeals, letters

and reports, but this week with a couple of signatures on a single sheet of

paper in a cramped office in Filadelfia, Playas del Coco got its first high

school.

At a little after ten o’clock Wednesday morning, Mayor José María Guevara

Navarrete signed a contract, which hands over three hectares of town land

upon which the school will be built.

“This merits celebration and applause,” the Mayor said, as he waved his pen

with a flourish.

And with that signature, the first of two installments totaling 54 million

colones, or about $120,000, will be released by the Ministry of Education to

build Liceo Diurno de Playas del Coco, which will house 150 students from

years seven to 11.

“This is the culmination of four years struggle,” said a clearly delighted

Javier Campos Chaves, President of the Asociacion de Desarrollo Integral de

Playas del Coco.

“The community is going to be very happy at this news, and within a month we

expect the Ministry of Education will give us the first installment of 27

million colones to start building,” Mr Campos said after the signing

ceremony.

The Municipality of Carrillo’s agreement to provide the land, just off the

main road into Playas del Coco, was the Ministry of Education’s main

criterion for funding.

In July this year the Municipality voted unanimously to provide the three

hectares, but it was the signed agreement that will release State funds. That

agreement cedes the land to the Association for 20 years with the proviso it

can only be used to build the school on a portion of the property, and sport

and recreation projects on the rest.

In fact, only one hectare will be used for the school buildings. The

remaining land will one day have a children’s park, a soccer field and a

basketball court.

The Municipality will remain responsible for property taxes, while the

Association will pay all electricity, water and maintenance charges.

The first phase, which the Association hopes will be finished in time for the

new school year, will be a single wing of five classrooms and some

administration offices. A further two wings in phase two will add another ten

classrooms.

Playas del Coco has never had a high school. In the past local students —-

about 130 of them —- had to travel to Sardinal and Liberia for secondary

education. In February of this year Playas del Coco got a headmistress from

San José for the non-existent school, and students were moved temporarily

into the old Super Luperon building off the main square.

Flushed with the success of this week’s meeting, the Association is already

working on obtaining a second lot for a community center.


*Pacheco to attend Plan Puebla session

President Abel Pacheco will travel to Chiapas State, México, for a meeting

Thursday and Friday of the heads of state of countries involved in the Plan

Puebla Panamá.

The controversial plan, one of regional integration, was proposed by Vincente

Fox, Mexico’s president, Nov. 30, 2000.

The plan envisions linking the southern Mexico states with all of Central

America by merging electrical, pipeline and highway networks, among other

facilities. The plan is a package of 26 giant projects that are designed to

attract outside financing. Initial investment is about $10 billion.

The plan has been declared dead a number of times, but the concept continues

to inch forward, being overshadowed in the news by the Central American free

trade agreement. The plan gets its name from the city in México, Puebla, and

the southernmost country involved in the project, Panamá.
