Cartagena

---

Our last stop in South America. It has been a great trip, all the way from the tip of Patagonia to the far North of the continent by bus, it has been a good ride. The first thing we did in Cartagena was search for a boat. Our plan was to take a boat all the way from South America to Central America. It took us a couple calls but we found one for a reasonable price and it seemed like the boat was going to be a good boat. After that was accomplished we spent the next couple of days at the beach. It is sooooo hot in Cartagena that I could barley stand it. Not only was it over 105 degrees everyday but the water is also very hot. Getting in the water does not cool you down at all only when you come out the wind can cool you off. The downtown of Cartagena was very beautiful. It use to be a fort so there is a huge rock wall all the way around the city. We enjoyed our time here but it was just a little to hot for me to handle so I was very happy to leave. On to Panama!!!
