Comarca is the Jet-Set bar for this moment in the old city of Cartagena de Indias.This fridaynight it was very busy. The whole city is overfull in these times of holidays for the Colombians. There is not a vacant room.

Comarca

The atmosphere in this nautical shop with an enormous collection of boat related items was relaxed and a bit noisy. Friendly and warm people that are enthousiastic music fans. They dance just 25 cm. away from my horn. Sometimes a bit dangerous for my teeth.

Doctor Urbino

There was a famous guest playing two of his most known songs that you hear everywhere and interpreted by everybody. Doctor Urbino is songwriter, poet and ballenato-cantor. Besides that he is a real medical doctor. He sang ‘La Reina’ and ‘Mi Hija’, and then he unfortunately had to leave.

My new outfit, the Panama hat

It took me a while to find for the right prize a good Panama hat. Finally I found it. There is a lot to know about the Panama hat that doesn’t come from Panama but from Equador. Here in Colombia they have a variety on this Equadorian Panama hat.
