| 10th September 2009 Jessica | Divemaster-Taganga - From: Diving the Caribbean is not as warm as you'd think! Hi Chrissy! I have been reading your blog and others on Colombia to find out what I'm getting myself into. Thank-you for sharing this information, it's so much better than the guide books to read real experiences AND the pictures help too! Just wondering was your Divemaster a local or a foreigner? I'm a DM hoping to find work in this beach town, but I'm wondering if they hire foreign DM's. I know some places will only hire there own people. Thanks so much and keep having a safe/fun journey! Fellow diver, Jessica |

| 1st August 2009 liliram | Unbelievable! - From: Start spreading the news, we're leaving today... My, that was some honeymoon! Congratulations, mark and chrissie........been following your honeymoon blogs. Must be the longest, adventure and fun-filled honeymoon I've heard of. To top it all, you ended your trip back in UK, TOGETHER. I bet you came out of this honeymoon as better persons, with honed sensibilities for each other's ups and downs, and outrightly more understanding of each other. Going by your blogs, I sensed that......plus more. You guys surely had fun! |

| 21st June 2009 Dlear | memories - From: Rio Dulce - Does it Get any Better? I remmebr a different Rio Dulce from my time there. I lived there for 6 months in a small hut behind a restaurant on the south shore of the river where the bridge is. It was 1974 and i was 9 years old. There was not a bridge then only a ferry boat to take people accross and the road was mostly dirt. They had a generator that gave power till 9pm and then you relied on candles for light. My dad was working there scouting out areas for the bridge. We used to set up a slide show somenights for the villagers and they loved it. Livingston also back then was onlhy accessable by a ride down the river in a dugout boat. They only had 3 cars in the town back then. Such memories. Such fun. |

Your article reminded me of them both with great fondness, along with all the steaks, empanadas, protests and late nights (or mornings!) Try to get to an after hours club called Caix - open only on Sundays from 8am - 6pm for the real hardcore clubbers who dont want to go home when the other clubs close!!! Has an open air section overlooking a beach where picnicing families stare in puzzlement at all the crazy Sunday afternoon ravers |
