The End of the San Blas Tour

Our San Blas adventure officially ended in Carpagana. It was here that we were officially stamped into Colombia. The tour company have an 'arrangement' with the immigration lady that, in exchange for us purchasing glow stick coloured 13% alcohol beverages from her at her immigration desk, she will stamp the entire group into the country in less than 5 minutes. A highly unusual arrangement but one I wish more countries had!

Everyone was staying in Carpurgana for the night so we all checked into our hostels, had proper showers and then headed out for a group lasagna. It was here that was discovered that 13 of the 18 of us would be travelling to Cartagena the next day, with a further 3 joining the day after! On this high we hit the town and took over a local outdoor nightclub until the early hours. A great time had by all!Read more
