The temperature is close to 40°! It is therefore in the shade of the colorful alleys that I discovered the former port of arrival of the slaves. As the historic center looks like a happy Disneyland (very touristy), I continued through the popular district of Getsemani, where, on Sundays, the locals take out their sound systems on the sidewalk. It's party ! Some play dominoes, others take their canaries to a singing competition! I escaped to La Boquilla, an Afro-Colombian village, where I learned the subtlety of percussion and a few dance steps, often inspired by animals. There, I embarked for a tour in the mangrove in the middle of not very shy birds. How calm!
