Pre-birthday at Hotel Sofitel Santa Clara with Clarita

Our friend Luis who we met in Taganga told us we had to at least have a drink at the Hotel Sofitel Santa Clara. It is a beautiful hotel inside the old walled part of Cartagena. Gabriel García Márquez's house is supposedly right next door too.



As it is really pricey, we went for a pre-30th birthday cocktail. (I had the chilean white flight).


Clarita, a tucan, lives in the courtyard and is fantastically nice.

(here Clarita is telling me her favorite Pirate joke in a Scottish accent)

  3. But of course! And, she also said, that "it was a lovely day for a Guinness!" and kept muttering something about how fruit loops were great, but I was more interested in the Guinness. ;)
