Waking up early is not rewarded

Tuesday, 03.02.26

At 4 AM, the alarm rang because we were supposed to be picked up at 5 AM to go to the San Blas Islands.

By around 5:30, we were slowly getting anxious, and at 7 AM, the tour operator was finally reachable, and we learned that due to a storm, no boats had been going to the islands for two days. They simply forgot to inform us 🤪

The amazing thing about the 2 hours of waiting: How incredibly friendly the people here are. We are in a city with over 1 million inhabitants, and everyone passing by greets us with a friendly 'Buenos Dias'.

The first task of the day was to find a new hotel for the next night. After that, we explored the city and crafted an alternative plan for the next days by the hotel pool.

Great skyscrapers and much cleaner than I would have expected.
