Steve's Adventures in South America
I bought a one-way ticket to Venezuela and I'm not coming back until my tube of toothpaste runs out...

Floralis Generica

On return from Club 69 Isi and I grab gear from our rooms, leave John at the breakfast table and head out to La Recoleta. We visit the $6,000,000 giant metallic flower (Floralis Generica) which closes up at night and opens for the day, before we explore the cemetery. The cemetery is still a very cool place to be. the freaky thing is, for the whole 2 hours we were there for, I was being constantly stalked and closely followed by the same black & white dead person as last time! Photos revealed identical markings. Ooeerr...

Look at the Creepy Reaper Dude in the Background! La Recoleta Cemetery Crypts Someone Lend Her A Hand! Lazy Dog walkers

A relaxed brekkie in a tourist cafe and we wander home on foot. Only we get lost. We knew this because after an hour of strolling down back streets we begin to see the same shops and hotels roll by again. Arse. So we call time out for a few beers. During which we observe dog walkers - they'd walk around the corner with their 8 - 10 dogs and park up for a drink whilst the dogs sit down quietly. Then they'd just walk back round the corner again. What a great job!

Dauk at Hotel Colon

We finally make it back in time for a shower and meet up with the others in the Dark bar. Later we end up at the bar in "Hotel Colon" chatting to some Americans until the early hours. I get talked into Brekkie at Miccy Ds and we're back home just in time for Isi to switch off her morning alarm!
