Media Luna and San Andres
Gil and I spent a couple more days in Cayos Cajones and sailed to Media Luna another set of cays in the same reef system about 20 miles further south. This is where we bid Karen and Mike fairwell and continued to Providencia. as luck would have it the wind was on our nose so we changed course and headed to San Andres, which took a total of two days to get to. But it has been worth the head winds to get to. Checking into the island is a little different here. You must go through an agent who does all you paper work for you. If you do it any where else in South America it takes a couple of hours maybe. Here it takes Rene two to three days and one hundred and four dollars. And sometimes he is on time for your appointment. Oh well! The island is worth spending time in Beautiful beaches and great diving and snorkeling. You can rent a golf cart of scooters and do your own thing going around the island. Or hire a guide to take you on a tour. If you go on your own most people can tell you where the attractions are and how to get there. All of the people here are very friendly and courteous. Just before we anchored on our first day here we sailed into a group of spinner dolphins who gave us a spectacular show . there are plenty of things going on at this beautiful island paradise and I don't know if we can get them all in before we leave.
