We arrived later than expected, on Christmas Day. There was
a room snafu, but soon we settled into our lovely suite. Casa Amani was a
little pricy, but absolutely lovely and beautiful. We felt very relaxed, and it
was the best breakfast I have had in Colombia. “¿Donde esta la playa?” I was
told the beach nearby was dirty and unsafe and that we should take a 15 minute
taxi ride. We were dismayed. Our friends Sherry and Steve arrived, and we
headed out to a Christmas dinner of pizza, and of course, I had a maracuya juice. We walked around the
town, and then headed back to the lovely Casa Amani to get our stuff together
for our hike.
We had thought we’d stay in Santa Marta another four days
after our hike, but our first impression told us, NO. So we changed our
reservation; we had hoped for something nearby Tayrona, but ended up in the
uber-crowded backpacker beach town Taganga.
