It was so hot during the night in my 20-dollars room! I was happy to take the shower in the morning and walk to the old city. At 8 am the city was only awaking. It was great pleasure to stroll around almost empty streets, enjoying the rows of old houses with wooden balconies decorated with flowers… Unfortunately the churches: San Pedro and cathedral were closed. A long segments of the city walls are also open for walking, so you can enjoy there morning breeze and take the pictures… Definitely Cartagena was worth a second visit, especially in such a calm atmosphere…
I returned to my hostal for a shower, and then it was a time to go to the airport. The last expensive solution is to take a dirty public minibus from the stop opposite the monument of India Catalina. On the bus is not written “airport” but the name of the company VehiTrans. I paid my last 2000 pesos to the driver and ask people to tell me where to get of after some 20 minutes drive. After disembarking the bus you have to turn right into the little street which is heading to the terminal – some 400 m.
Uff! The interior has a/c in thd airport. I was flying to Fort Lauderdale on JetBlue – an American low-cost carrier from the upper shelf… Nice 2,5h flight, they serve a soft drink and chips!
It is evening now and I am waiting in FLL airport for the another low-cost flight to Europe (on Norwegian). It is raining in Florida. Very sad wether here! It is hard to imagine, that in the morning I suffered from such a strong sun!
