Chillaxing and recovery from the jungle

We spent a nice Sunday in Colombia’s Carribean beach at Tayrona National Park (Cabo San Juan) today:

Woken by the sunlight at around 6am, we soon put up our hammock and alternated between swimming, reading/listening to audio books, sleeping in the hammock, having a freshly pressed juice or people watching while our solar panel recharged the batteries (thanks, Aastha and Rüdiger!)

We also managed to - finally - dry our wet and humid clothes that we brought with us from the Ciudad Perdida trek. Humidity or wetness is a constant companion here in the northern part of Columbia - either in the form of rain or air humidity that will immediately turn your dry clothes into a damp something, or in the form of sweat running down your face as soon as you do anything more exhausting than walking 100 steps. :-)

In the evening we met or friends Nic and Alex - a fellow Ciudad trekker and our translator. We unpacked our slack line and practiced a little with them before having a nice dinner together :-)Read more
