Every niche of the western Old City walls is filled with friends and lovers out to watch the sunset.

This was another cute little sunset bar along the top of the city wall. I never could figure out the name, but it was much more down to earth than the trendy Cafe del Mar, and my tasty Mojito cocktail actually arrived promptly!

A night view of the Cathedral. Evenings in Cartagena were very pleasant, as the ocean breeze really cooled things down after sunset.

This was a cute little courtyard restaurant in Getsemanie, near my hotel called "La Casa de Socorro." They are known for their seafood.

Langostino Lobster Tail in Garlic Butter, which I expected to be one small tail, but I got several. Scrumptious! In Colombia, they serve "Cerveza Michelada," beer served in a salt-rimmed glass with a shot of fresh squeezed lime juice.

I took a day trip from Cartagena by "fast boat" to Playa Blanca, reported to be Cartagena's best beach. The day trip cost me about $25 US, including lunch.

Playa Blanca lived up to it's reputation as an absolutely gorgeous beach and swimming destination, though the hawkers were heavily active, even coming out into the water to offer you the perfect bracelet, necklace, pair of sunglasses, massage, etc. etc.

Word got around pretty quickly, however that I was not a "consumer," so after my first stroll down the beach saying "No, gracias!" they left me alone.
