This is our third day here and Cartagena has exceeded my expectations. It has the MOST beautiful historical center I have ever visited with many well maintained or restored colonial buildings; patios and balconies overflow with tropical plants. The locals are lovely; relaxed yet hard working. There are a good number of tourists here, but it's not overrun. Very lively.
The downside is that it is VERY hot and sticky here. There is an ocean breeze so it is not muggy. The direct result is that we sweat by the buckets.

Good to see that you've started! Cartagena sounds great, but maybe I should check for a cooler time of year before visiting. Bon voyage.
The next best thing to traveling the world is to have friends that travel the world. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us.
