We slept well again getting up at 7am. Others went on a trip to a better beach but I
understood its 3 hours away so we skipped it.
There were a lot more people on the beach today – especially
children.
I finally realized that today is Colombia’s Independence Day.
Today there were a lot of plants and what looked like vomit
floating up on the beach. When I
splashed water on the latter I found out it was just made up of bubbles. Teresa explained it all drifted in from some
river.
Again we had lunch in the cabana.
I ate the bag of Maizitos (kind of like Fritos but not as
tasty) that I had brought with us.
In the cabana next to us was a dark skinned man with what I
saw was 3 very young boys also dark skinned.
Teresa excused herself and a few minutes after she returned a couple
policemen arrived and talked to the man.
Teresa whispered to me that she believes he’s stealing children.
The policemen left and returned a couple hours later with 4
of their comrades. They talked to the
man some more while one of the men took some notes in a notebook. Finally they all walked away with the man and
2 of the small children walking with one of the policemen.
I asked Teresa what time we are scheduled to leave tomorrow
and she said noon which means we won’t get back to Medellin until about midnight.
