Arrived in Cartegena early and as soon as we got off the plane, we instantly felt the heat. Only a 15 minute drive to our hotel and we were able to see the wall the surrounds the main tourist part of Cartegena which was constructed to keep the Pirates out way back when. Decided to go for a bit of a walk and Shane wanted to try this famous ceviche place so we did that. Think it was the first ever seafood restaurant that didn't do anything except for seafood. I had to ask for a piece of French bread with cheese melted on top. We then decided to go for a walk along the wall which was a big mistake. I don't think I have ever felt heat like this before. My shirt was literally wet with sweat and within our 15 minute walk we each had 3 bottles of water each. We kept laughing at how terrible we all looked it was pretty bad. Decided to go back to the hotel for a quick dip in the pool and wring out our clothes. Then we had our showers and went out to dinner at this Argentina restaurant which was decorated amazingly on the outside and had the best steak I've ever had. And was such a great atmosphere. Off to bed and will hopefully be able to do something other then sit in air con tomorrow.
