South America!

The boat didnt sink... the bikes didnt fall into the briny... and we made it to Colombia!
The yacht trip turned out to be a real highlight of our trip so far, we spent five days in total, 3 sailing and 2 cruising in the sanblas islands north of the Darien. What an amazing place! Beautiful white sand beaches, coconut palms, super clear carribean water, epic snorkeling, bonfires on the beach, smoked fish, phosfluorescents, stars, lightening shows... what more could one ask for??
Colombia seems great, they say that two thirds of the worlds kidnappings occur here... but strangely it feels really safe!
Its a beautiful country, with winding roads through the Andes mountain range, jungle, cool architecture and lovely people.
