Last night I went to bed at 10pm, fell asleep quickly, got up once at 4:30, took at least an hour to fall back asleep, finally waking/getting up at 7am.

According to my Fitbit, I got in 7.124 steps yesterday and last night I slept for 4 hours and 53 minutes.

Annie James on Greek Orthodox Easter.

We’ve started packing the carryon with our clothes for a week. I’m also bringing my electronics in my backpack.

We left the apt at 1:30 and took a Didi to Terminal Norte for 22,900 pesos. We bought our tickets for 20,000 pesos each, made a last trip to the restroom for 2,000 pesos and took our assigned seats on the small bus. We left a couple minutes after the scheduled departure of 2pm. We had a little rain right after we left Medellin then again right after we exited the tunnel. We arrived in Santafe de Antioquia an hour and 30 minutes after we departed Medellin.

Chesswiz98 forced a draw by repetition, lowering my rating to 1506.

We took one of those little moto taxis to Boutique Hotel Al Alma for 6,000 pesos.

When we checked in they asked if I had already paid. 😊 I checked my USAA account and I hadn’t, so I paid the $685.46 with my debit card. They took us to our room – first floor near the entrance. The first level consisted of 2 twin beds, bathroom, and a small chest of drawers under a television under the stairs. Upstairs consisted of a queen size bed. No closet, so no place to hang our clothes, just the three drawers in the chest of drawers. ☹

We changed into our swimsuits and took comfortable chaise lounges by the pool. One other couple on the other side of the pool but they soon left. I had a mango juice while Teresa had a couple of cold beers.

We had supper at the hotel, salmon for Teresa and Saltado Peruano con pollo for me 

and we both had a glass of water.

Teresa freaked out a bit when she learned we were the only ones in the hotel. I told her I purposely reserved the entire hotel just for us. 😊

I won a game vs Troyclough increasing my rating to 1511.

I took my usual pre-sleep medications minus the magnesium powder because it would take up too much room.

I told Teresa I’ll take the twin bed closest to the bathroom and she can take the queen-sized bed upstairs but she insisted on taking the other twin bed next to mine.
