18/10/2011 - Waterfall trekking (day 3): Back to Ciudad Bolivar



We spent most of the day returning to Ciudad Bolivar where I said goodbye to the other people I'd been travelling with as they headed onwards to other destinations while I opted to spend one more night in Ciudad Bolivar before travelling onto Santa Elena tomorrow. It had been great travelling with some fellow English speakers and most of them seemed to have been travelling for a long time already so it was good to get some recommendations. A couple of people had come into Venezuela from Columbia which they were raving about so any reservations I might have had about going there have gone and its quite likely to be my next destination.

In the evening I went to a local eatery and ate what I can only describe as a massive plate of meat while Starship Troopers dubbed into Spanish droned on in the background. Seemed like a bit of an inappropriate film to be on at 7pm and not exactly what you'd want with your dinner, but maybe I should stop being so prudish.
