Day 9 Cartagena

 

Weather: Uh Oh!! Too hot for THB, after an hour and half on the morning city tour he is having a recurrence of the crappy feeling he was having in Hawaii. Same-same. 

Breakfast: on the 30th floor, THB and DB make it almost in one shot. Pastries: excellent. Machine cappuccinos not as good as the Marriott. Fruit good, just not as good as Four Seasons. View: TERRIFIC!! 



30th floor
THB has no idea what this is a pic of
City tour starts at 9:30 near the wall surrounding the old city. 














Rice Krispy type balls coated in mild caramel, supposedly popcorn.
 At this point, THB hits the wall and MariaLuz walks THB and DB over to the tour's next stop, the restaurant / cooking school. The A/C is on and we have a cold drink and THB is recovered by the time the tour arrives and the class starts
