Clear Soda With Colored Balls In It

(2) and Playa Grande, Santa Marta Taganga

Some photos are here because they are pretty, others because some piece of the document the life in Colombia (and pretty are not), others because they are strange or unusual, and still others because that they are meaningless (but I like them!). Some are overexposed, underexposed and others, but sometimes it also gives a nice effect. There are also those pictures that are here because they are sad, and we are now in Poland rather sad time, and those pictures will begin. I hope everyone will find something for everyone. And if not, you soon will get a lot more pictures here, maybe there will be better ...

Tagandze Cemetery. Here, the dead do not hides in the ground, as in Poland, nor build monuments unto them. Dead are buried in high, several meters catacombs. On the walls of the catacombs, there are commemorative plaques.

















...

not Tagandze wrote about one important issue of any later photos in question - for years Taganga was only a small fishing village, now is not just a tourist town, but also, still a fishing village. First

Tagandze day I realized once again that health is most important. Dragging in the morning, something popped in his back and almost the whole day I was lying paralyzed on the bed. Stretched muscle. It was incredibly hot, a fan to cool instead of me, just me wgniatal dense than hot air and moisture. A very unpleasant day. Why write about this? To everyone who already hate me, for all the enthusiastic descriptions of the local, after all the summer reality see that not everything here is just and only fun and colorful ... It was not until the second day in the afternoon I managed to get out and see the city and its surroundings.

piece for Taganga is a small hill, behind which is located in Playa Grande - reportedly one of the most beautiful beaches in the area, although among the garbage lying around does not impress.

view the beach from a distance.



coast I went further to find another, tiny beaches among the rocks, on which their cottage fishers were, happened there a few moored boats.





the way back to Tagangi at Playa Grande accosted me one of the fishermen, actually probably already is not a fisherman, a marine taxi driver, and proposed the return transport to Tagangi. I thanked him. The Lord said: "Amigo, but look at that hill, you have to go!" I looked, it was hot, hurt my back after yesterday, I did back in return and got into the boat. In 10 minutes (3 PLN) we arrived back to Tagangi. Taganga to the sea looks like.





Casa Blanca, it supposedly also pretty cool hostel lies as seen on the beach, and to our hostel, we had to walk about 10 minutes from the beach.





Tagandze beyond the obvious in spending time on the main promenadze, of course, I went
notice also to the outskirts of town, to see how its inhabitants live.



children just came back from school.





Other August they played in the area.



typical household with a typical fence ...



... and the typical resident, during the siesta.





younger of two visible in the picture you as soon as she saw me, she screamed: "Mama, gringo! Ask what she wants!?". Well, old lady asked me where I am nice, what I am doing here, if I have nowhere to sleep, because she has a room for me if I do not. Later offered to sell sexual services, and then drugs. I thanked him. I asked if I can do a picture, to which Mr eagerly had agreed. In the picture I left plot specifically for where you live.



There's a secret rule of thumb in photography, the picture is not as you came, you can remove it and maybe the colors black and white will be good. This photo, for example, looks a little better without the colors. Sometimes it is used, although I try not to overdo it.



I thought that in South America will be a lot of parrots. This is one of very few that I have seen, in somewhat unusual.



Children Tagangi







boy on the right bottles attacked two young boys, their sister (?) Stood in their defense, and drove it!



Several of street artists. Later they will be much more.





first sunset in the port of Tagandze. Frankly sunset over the Baltic Sea are much more interesting - first of all a lot more colorful. Although boats here ascribe color.





Tagangi few pictures at night.
main plaza.



Parked on the shore, ice under the trees.





People Tagangi.

- boy curious gringo



- back from school




- Work Port



- rest in the port



- hangover in the port



- back to the port at dusk, with a new portion of fish
(you know why there is no color;)



- (probably) the negotiations on the price caught fish. Prices vary dynamically here, sometimes in restaurants also do not have prices, but only note that the price depends on market price.





- The Lord was very proud of catching, wanted to watch the photos he took. First he does not like the idea and asked for another, here it is. Also it would be black and white, gryby's not worth the pay attention to the fish, was caught and her colors!



- Tagangi women, especially for colleagues! On the picture you can see very well, with men firmly behind them watched the August!
(later will be more and better pictures;)









Another of the sunset.





- here I had Fuks (and reflexes)







- an evening of fun in one of the boat



- watching the results angling, just after sunset



one of the next day we went to Tayrona National Park. This is a place where Native American tribe Zylo Tayrona, I need them to admit that chose a nice place ... (More on this in the next section). For the BS goes for an hour by bus from Santa Marta. Something I took for taking pictures on the bus and through its window, which I do rarely, but maybe some of them you will like it. Views from Santa Marta and the road to the park.

































recently queried how big influence on our last month of traveling had Lari ... If someone has not read the previous entries - this is quite a controversial treatment for malaria. We took the first Lari Iquitos. Once in Quito, we decided to relax after a hard week in Iquitos, and subsequent events, I stated that we are tired, normal thing, you need to relax. I get rest, so much fatigue is accompanied us all the time. Enthusiasm for further expeditions greatly subsided, we wanted less, in Cali, Cartagena, in Tagandze often with reluctance that the all morning we woke up. Two, it is true too intense months, and so should not get from us! Somewhere is the border between resting, laziness, and ... Only recently I thought that this could be influenced Lariamu, who probably also had an effect on my last blogging considerable work ... In the meantime, we learned that among other things, in Switzerland and the USA Lari is already banned, too much was followed by suicide and other complications. For some reason, in Poland, however, continue to prescribe it. However, if someone of you will reach select the areas at risk malaria, take Malarone or any of the drugs, to shun! Lari is a very unpleasant thing. Yesterday, I took treatments to finish his last dose of - perhaps, after all, saved my life ...
