The last photos of Cartagena - I promise!

August 25, 2008

Two post in one day... I believe this is a first for me! I have soooo many photos from our trip and I feel compelled to post at least a couple from each day.

Max and Maggie had their first soda in Cartagena. Not that they haven't snuck a sip or two of mine and Mike's but this was their first real glass that I got FOR THEM. Max wasn't too impressed.

The kids drank their sodas while we waited for a cab. A Colombian couple was stationed at Quantico last year for school and are now in Cartagena so we met them for dinner out in the "old town" area of Cartagena. Soooo quaint.

Here's the kids in front of the restaurant making friends with the bull. The food here was to. die. for!


The next day we went back to do some exploring. Here's a photo of a typical street.




Max playing with the cannons.

Mike awaiting his fate.

I love how Maggie and this statue are the same size. Torture time... Maggie was NOT happy about posing for this photo. Some of the torture devices in this place were so sadistic I have no idea how anyone came up with them!

Onto happier times... our first Colombian birthday party. This was at a pizza place and seriously it was kid paradise.




Mini kids disco.


Slides - Here is the birthday boy!

Ball pits


I could go on... but the photo madness has to end somewhere!
