In the city of the pirates....

Since two days we are now in Caragena. So far we already know the beautiful oldtown and today we are going to explore an old fortress that was built to defend the town from pirate attacks.
But in a few days we are already going to continue to a small, lonely island....Hopefully it works out...

On the way to Cartagena...

The last 10 days we stayed in the Tayrona nationalpark. There we camped at the beach, climbed coconut palms, swam in a lukewarm river and in the evening we drank rum out of coconuts...
Yesterday we arrived in Santa Marta again and today we are going to continue to Cartagena...

Back in Colombia!!!!

After two long and expensive weeks in Venezuela where nothing worked out as we had planned we finally returned to Colombia!
Now we are enjoying our lifes with clean, white beaches, warm cristal clear water, coconuts, rum and lots of sun!!!!
At the moment we are in Santa Marta and tomorrow we will go to the Tayrona nacional park - more sun and more coconuts!!!!

...no island just for us...

We couldn`t go to the archipelago Los Roques because the guard of the port entrance had his strikt day - No tourists on cargo boats!!!
So we continued to Tucacas to camp on an island there...but this isn`t possible either because the venezueleans left so much garbage on the beach during the easter week that camping is not permitted any more...
Kevin will cure his caugh completely and then we are going to return to Colombia - it is much cheaper and more relaxed there...

Caracas...

Since three days we are in Caracas and now we know for sure that Venezuela IS eXXXXXXXXpensive!!! The pricelevel is almost the same as in Austria...
We would already have travelled on but Kevin got sick and with fever, headache and cough travelling is not fun...
But as soon as possible we will continue to the archipelago of Los Roques! ... if a cargo boat gives us a lift...
