Colombia
Posted by dezmondos | 23rd November 2009
After the shock of the sailing trip it was nice to be on dry land. I fell in love instantly with Cartagena – it is such a beautiful city. Me and Emil decided to stay in Getsemani – which really is the rough part of the city – I think they round up all the bums and put them in this area – but hey – it was cheap. The first few days were just exploring the city, inside the old walled city it is beautiful, its like walking back in time. Now one of the reasons I came here was for the carnival – Catagena’s Independence Day, which included the final of the Miss Colombia competition ;-).
The city was starting to warm up already for the carnival – this was 5 days before!! The main square was full of acts such as dancers and fire eaters – we spent hours just wondering around watching all the entertainment.
We went to see the famous fort – Romancing the Stone with Micheal Douglas was a film that was made in the 80’s and it is one of my favourite – and it was set in Colombia with the final seen
