Diana and I flew up to Cartagena. It was a beautiful city and reminded me a lot of St. Augustine. Diana booked an amazing hotel, Charleston Cartagen Hotel, that had been converted from a monastery from the 17th century so it was large and spacious. It was one of the only hotels located in the old city and so it was central to everything. The hotel was set up with all rooms facing toward the center of the hotel where we looked down on the first floor of the hotel. each room had its own hammoc...

For as long as IŽve been traveling, and to all of the exotic places IŽve seen, it never fails to confound me when I become completely and hopelessly lost. IŽll walk into a shop or something, and seconds later when I step back out into the street; IŽll wonŽt have a single clue of where I am. Granted, it normally takes 1-3 days before I get my bearings; but until then I have to remember landmarks and street names. I marvel at others who can be blindfolded, spun around, and then know instantly w...

... but, suffice-it-to-say, we had a very, very long day full of bureaucracy and paperwork... but we got the car! One long day and we were driving off into the sunset, that must be a record!<br><br>For anyone planning on doing this I would recommend Seaboard Marine. They were very helpful and clear with all of the steps. They were also reliable and organized. All in all we payed Seaboard a one-time-fee of $815 US in Panama and then we had to pay port fees ...

... in Santa Marta, after another hellish bus ride. Santa Marta is a seaside town where a lot of Colombians apparently go on holiday. I suppose there is a flasher part of town but I appear to be staying in a less savoury part. Still, it´s ok and I met an Irish guy called Jay and we went to nearby Taganga for a day at the beach yesterday. <br><br>Today has been more than productive. I bought a new watch (my Batman watch was killed by my super-strong DEET! I wept... almost ...

... paid, but he's pretty indiscriminatory about it. Afterward the whole experience, a jump into a nearby lake cleans you off. Spa Colombian style. We also visited the castle, which is the strongest fortification that the Spaniards constructed on colonial land. Despite the very numerous attacks, it was never conquered by the enemy. The museum of Inquisition was suitably grotesque and horrifying, but the Gold Museum was again interesting. We were ...

... and end all of everything archaelogical in Peru - clearly not true. This site is from the Moche culture (100 BC - 650 AD) making it over 1000 years older than anything from the Incas.<br><br><br>With the help of a guide we learn about a brutal civilisation where human sacrifice took place in advanced architectural creations adorned with colourful motifs and reliefs that were recurrent through the centuries. A land where Charles Manson and Lawrence Llewelyn-Bowen could live together ...

... of a Kronosaurus dinasaur (an early relative of the crocodile) which was unearthed in the area. The most thrilling part of the bike ride was on the way home, when we found ourselves surrounded by about 200 horseback riders out for a social (and boozy!) Saturday afternoon ride. Genuinely nice folks, they teased us about our bikes and offered us whiskey! Next stop ...

... took us to a really cute bistro where we had vegetables and were very happy about that! After a good night´s sleep we somehow managed to spend a whole day exploring the streets of Cartagena. The city is like nowhere we´ve been so far...it has so much history of pirates and slaves and the buildings are all so beautiful, colourful and interesting. There are lots of plazas for coffee/beer and people-watching...one of which we ...

... around the islands before they deteriorate into further chaos. The rules set forth by the Antarctic governing body are a perfect example of the kind of protection that is desperately needed. <br><br>*South America: pull yourselves out of the backwards Catholic rut that you are in and make some inroads against teenage pregnancy and AIDS. Seriously, let's pull our collective heads out of our asses.
