Alright, so we haven't been keeping up with the blog quite as well as planned (one of us worse than the other...Schmave) So now it's time to recap from where I left off with 25 eggs getting stolen in Medellín.
We might some dudes, Ish and Abz, from England during our Pablo Escobar tour which was sweet. We went and saw some of his old buildings, where he was killed, and his grave yard. Then we went out for a night on the town....

Got into Cartagena, (the Caribbean coast), finally! But ya, it wasn't as sweet as we thought. Cool place, and there were plenty of awesome attractions to go to nearby, but the city itself showed what tourism can do to a culture at it's worst. Nice people, but we were getting offered blow like every block, and even in the morning. Thanks, but that's a little early. The main goal was to find a boat over to Panamá. Unfortunately, we arrived the day that most boats were leaving, so we had to wait about 5 more days. It was fun though. We met a lot of cool people. Went to a live broadcast of the Shakira concert one night and gave an interview on our thoughts of Shakira. The common response was "wooooooh!" We were then in the newspaper
A few days later we went to Playa Blanca, and I fulfilled my dream of drinking a Piña Colada out of a coconut on a perfect Caribbean beach.
Then we went to a mud volcano. A really deep pit of mud. That was cool. Then some lady bathed me in the river while I drank a beer.
