Ave Americo Vespuccio Puerto La Cruz, Northeast Venezuela, Venezuela, 281-281-1011
... werd er uiteraard binnen no-time gejankt dat het een lieve lust was, daarbij kon je er uiteraard ook op wachten totdat er gekotst zou worden... en jawel, tegen het einde van de rit dreef er inderdaad een zure walm door de bus. Om het feest helemaal compleet te maken hield de bus er halverwege ook nog eens mee op. Gelukkig kon de motor worden gemaakt en konden we na een half uur onze ...
Puerto La Cruz, Northeast Venezuela, Venezuela jhoekstra79... It should be a little cooler there, and we have yet to see if there is camping, but we are looking forward to our next little adventure. Bye for now and we hope all is well. CO and PPB PS The map pin may not be in the correct location because we have a slow internet connection. For the same reason we have not been able to upload photos. Sorry! We will try in another town.
Santa Fe, Central Venezuela, Venezuela coryandpierre... maar rijden met alcohol schijnt hier geen enkel probleem te zijn. Was op zich blij dat er een file was op de terugweg waardoor het tempo laag lag. Op een klein kusje van de bumper van de auto voor ons na zijn we gelukkig veilig thuis gekomen, alwaar ik de rest van de familie ontmoet heb. Na nog meer rum en whiskey was ik echt kapot. Ik kreeg een hangmat aangeboden (omdat er nogal veel familie leden over de vloer waren, was er geen bed meer vrij) en ik was zeer ...
Puerto la cruz, Venezuela jhoekstra79We arrived! Been a bit of a up and down start to the trip to put it mildly. First things first, the flight (Air Europa), one of the budget airlines to Caracas was far better than we had ever dared hope, with inflight meals, films and leg room! The only complaint was of the other passengers though guess this can´t be helped... After landing and a brief argument with passport control on our [lack of address] we had the inevitable nail biting wait for baggage. After half hr or so ...
Puerto La Cruz, Northeast Venezuela, Venezuela spog00... a couple of benches while most of the other passengers fought for prime positions to hang their hammocks!! Anyway, we arrived and caught the first available cab and ordered double qucik time to the bus terminal to get tickets to Santa Elina. We arrived to find that there is only one bus per day and it left 2 minutes ago!!! The joys, trials and tribulations of travel by the seat of our pants !! So now what... We would simply call ...
Puerto la Cruz, Venezuela kingsandems... and head for the nearest stall to ask directions to the playa (beach) which is where all the posadas are. The chap points down the puddle filled road which has loads of kids playing in the pools of water. The road is dirt and there are slum houses on either side. Halfway down we see a bus coming up behind us filled with tourists.. "A sure sign we are heading in the right direction" the driver stops next to us and shouts something incomprehensible ...
Santa Fe, Venezuela kingsandems... gasten af op Statia en beginnen wij aan onze overtocht. We vinden het veel spannender dan anders en Syl probeert er nog onderuit te draaien: "zouden we niet liever hier nog een nachtje blijven slapen, ik ben best moe". Maar de schipper is onverbiddelijk: dit is het weather window, we gaan! En we hebben een prachtige tocht van drie dagen, waarin we er volop van genieten weer eens langere tijd op zee te zijn. De enige tegenslag is een scheur in het ...
Puerto la Cruz, Venezuela sylviaenjeroen26/05/08 - L We crossed the border into Venezuela North of Boa Vista near the Venezuelan town of Santa Elena de Uairen, this was the borderpost where we got stamped into country number 2 on our trip. We hadn´t heard many good things said about Venezuela from other travellers as they said it is expensive, dirty and the people are not very friendly but of course we kept an open mind and were looking forward to getting onto the beach after the jungle!! 27/05/08 - L Our bus arrived ...

Puerto La Cruz, Venezuela farawayfromhome... peckish and as promised our guide fired a D.I.Y BBQ and prepared for us a plentiful feed of grilled sardines and bread. In the excitement I managed to snag myself on some rusty barbed wire whilst Jim and I kept a close eye on our increasingly elusive, academic, crack smoking guide. At this point I was starting to really like Venezuela for its sheer dodgyness morethan anything else. We returned to our hotel late afternoon just as it was getting dark. We were all in high spirits ...
