Burning the Inheritance

We hiked up to the Castle de San Felipe de Barajas in Cartagena for awesome views of the city. The castle is a fortress built in 1536 by the Spaniards. There is a huge Colombian flag at the top, with the colors representing the abundant gold in Colombia, blue for the country’s seas, and red, the blood spilled fighting for Colombian independence. We have enjoyed our time in Cartagena and are now getting set to travel south in South America. Onward to Buenas Aires, Argentina!
