Medellin to Cartagena


We began our last morning in Medellin by driving to a popular hillside park that overlooks the city. It was lively even at 7:30 AM.



Next came a ride on the subway, followed by a cable-car ride to near the top of a "lower class" neighborhood on one of the very steep hillsides that surround downtown Medelliin. These two connected systems, along with buses, help the poor people of Medellin to get to work in other parts of the city.



In the early afternoon we flew to Cartagena. After checking into our hotel and resting a bit, we took an evening walk through the Old City and out to the fort to watch the sunset - and other activities.
