We have until noon for our pickup so we had breakfast again in Chocolateria San Ginés (a 3-minute walk from our hostal) but this time we tried their Porras (similar to churros but larger) with lattes. We didn’t care for them so we switched back to their churros.





Back at the hostal we packed our bags and checked out.

We were at our prearranged pickup location at noon and our driver Luis was there waiting for us. It was more of a minivan than a taxi so the ride to the airport was extra comfortable. There was a short line for check-in and again our bags were easily under the 23kg limit. We went through a long TSA line and the screens told us our gate would be in the B area and the exact gate would be known by 12:30 for our 3:15 flight, Air Europa UX199. We shared a tuna sandwich with lattes in a cafe called Cafestic.





It's a long flight back to Medellin, probably seems longer because our vacation is over. What was kind of neat is I could track the progress of our flight on a screen on the seatback ahead of me. I could also scroll and zoom in on any part of the world.

This woman an aisle ahead of me didn’t put on her seatbelt for takeoff or during the flight but did for the landing.




There were 2 long lines at immigration, one for Colombians and the other for foreigners. Their line was longer but they had 3 officials servicing them to only one for us. Teresa and I both passed through at about the same time.

Picking up our bags went pretty quickly.

Bryan had told me he wouldn’t be available to pick us up so we took an airport taxi back to our apt and I was a little surprised he charged 138mil. Has inflation increased that much or did he just take advantage of us?

I went next door to Ara and waited in a long line to buy 2 bags of milk.

We unpacked some necessary items and were in bed by 9:30.
