I took a sleeping pill last night, the ones that I bought in Panama but the problem with them is that they make you drowsy all day. I hung around playing pool for the evening and went out with some British girls to see a view of the town from a cable cart; it was part of the metro system meaning it was dirt cheap and the views of the city from above were spectacular.The group of us accidentally took the next cable cart continuing further for another 20 minutes well out of the city, over a forest and then to somewhere where it seemed no foreigners were allowed… we tried to get off here but some officials’ told us to stay in the cable cart and took the 20 minute journey back to the city.
When I got back to the hostel there were about 15 or so others I had met on previous nights (mostly Irish) heading in the same direction as me and so we all organized taxis to the bus station where we had to hang around for 3 hours before getting the bus to Cartagena.
It’s a 12 hour journey throughout the night and it was all good because I took a tiny bit of a sleeping pill and crashed.
