Tuesday: Jeep Safari

Tuesday morning we ate breakfast and went out to wait our ride. We didn't have to wait for long. In the jeep was already four other tourist (probably from Argentina or Venezuela). We sat next to the door and tried to understand what people were saying. Our driver didn't speak much english nor did the other tourists.

First we went to a place close by, where all the other cars would come as well. There were souvenier shops there, but we didn't see the point to buy stuff now and carry them around the whole day. So we didn't buy anything from there.

Next stop was at a fortress, which was pretty old. I mean older than what I have seen before (I think). The view was amazing. You could see really far away, but I think that was the point of having the fortress there. There we also heard the plan for the trip in english. Which was nice and turned out to be almost the last english that we heard the whole day.

Then we travelled to a "spiritual capital" where there was a big church and lots of small souvenier stores. The sun was very hot and luckily we continued our trip soon after the stop. Again we listened to a music which was too loud for our taste and which from we understood nothing.

We went to a boat trip. We saw a sea star (or what ever they are called ;)) and raced the other boats. We stopped to eat lunch at a beach restaurant. Sadly we didn't stay there to swim, but coninued to another beach.

We took a lot of pictures and I have already shared some in kuvaboxi ;)
