Cartagena Today


I had the best day and just wanted to share a few photos.  We went to a monastery up on a hill that over-looked the entire city as well as the ship. It was absolutely gorgeous!  I was so intrigued by everything I saw...Bibles & song books that were centuries old...statues of different saints and of course Mary. They also had notes (money) from all the different countries that had come through the monastery over the years.  It was amazing to see it all.  Oh, AND I GOT TO HOLD A SLOTH!!!  So neat!  He was really sweet...well I mean, I guess he was...he didn't try to claw me or anything.  He had very course fur and really did move unbelievably slow.  
Ok, I'm done. Just had a good day and wanted to share!!  

Here's the whole album if you want to see all the pictures I took.  You should be able to click on this link and go right to it:
