This is the view from the hill looking out over Cartagena. 
That day there were 3 cruise ships in port. That's the day you DON'T want to vist the old historic city centre because the hawkers are in full force to get the other kind of cruisers.

La Popa, Cartagena
We were tired of working on Fortuitous so took a day off to visit La Popa. We thought that name referred to the Pope, but it actually refers to the shape of the hill which resembles the "poop deck" on a boat...that's what the name actually means in Spanish.
