Playa Blanca, Baru, ColombiA
Hotel Donde Le Le
This morning we awoke to clear sky’s and calm seas. I am also happy to report that my foot feels 90% better.
We had a nice long slow swim, rinsed off with a bucket of almost fresh water and sat on our deck to watch the world go by.
We packed up our things to go off to have breakfast. We found a great place, with tables and chairs right on the beach. Unfortunetly, it was almost 2 hours to get our meals. Unbeknownst to us, we had ordered arepas, like a thick corn pancake, which have to be made from scratch. By then it was after 10, and already getting hot, so we jumped in the water again, dried off in the sun and headed out to the private beach where the rich Colombians hang out. We ordered a great lunch and it was only about $20. It was worth it for the ambiance alone. The lounge chairs were pretty nice too.
Back at our place we rinsed off with a bucket of cool fresh water then layed down for well deserved rest.
Sounds like you had an absolutely fabulous day. And so glad your foot is better. That could have been bad. 👏🏼🤗
Thanks sweet one. You and Chet would absolutely love it here. This is nothing like Central America. These people are so nice!
I could handle the “nice hotel” part.
Yesterday we tipped our waiter 10,000 pecos, when we returned today the staff treated us like we were VIP’s. I guess the rich Colombians are not good tippers.
What a life!
Eating, sunbathing, swimming..repeat.. That’s the life. What a fabulous vacation.
