Cartegena y Barranquilla

After a couple days of 95 degree heat, a pearly green ocean, and the constant threat of massive sunburn -- oh, and two concerts -- we are waiting in the airport for our flight to Cali from Cartegena.

I'm a little tired and distracted in the airport, but some of the things we saw:

1. The old city of Cartegena, complete with old Spanish colonial architecture, climbing vines and flowers, and LOTS of flags for Colombian independence day.
2. The old wall that surrounded the city, dating back to the early 1500s.
3. A beach with water so warm it was almost like soup.

Cali is the purported capital of salsa music of the entire world. Looking forward to some dancing and good music, and maybe even a decent orchestra concert.
