Santa Marta, 23rd Nov.

Santa Marta is growing on me. Whilst the old centre isn't quite as ancient or historically significant as some other places I've been to on this trip, it's got its own 'charm'. I'm sure there'll be more to discover, as I hope the snaps indicate.
Well, as usual, if I'm not careful, I could eat up a few miles walking around, getting (blissfully) lost and then finding somewhere recognisable to guide me back.
After checking with the manager where I'm staying (a really nice, friendly chap) I think I've got a good idea where the buses start from to get to the 'must see' places in the area. One or two beaches are within walking distance, but to see the villages where indigenous people still live I'll have to do some travelling.
All in all, not a bad first couple of days. The people are still friendly and I haven't worn my Covid mask yet.Read more
