| The howler monkeys got very excited at teatime |
We enjoyed a leisurely day at the hotel, with the grackles and iguanas at breakfast. I finished reading
Paul Theroux's Old Patagonian Express at last - his South American experiences were more amusing and less complaining than his Central American stories. We had lunch at the hotel, swam in the pool and played cards.

At 5pm there was general excitement as the resident
howler monkeys got very lively and started running, jumping and howling loudly - their cry is pityful. We strolled along the beach to the Colombian bar and had a very nice
mojito watching the sunset.We had reserved a table at our hotel for dinner and chose the day's specials - beef tenderloin for Richard and sea bass for me, plus soup/ceviche to start. A large crab approached our table and threatened our feet which was rather worrying! For dessert we enjoyed chocolate mousse.
