Waking up to colors

I am sitting here on drab winter February day writing this blog. It is gray, windy and oh so dark outside but my mind is truly back to 14 days ago when I walked the city of Cartagena as it was just waking up.

Most people love to catch a pulse of a city before it goes to sleep. The evening hustle and night time bustle energizes people. I on the otherhand, enjoy the morning solitude.

In the morning, you get to walk the pavement with those that call the city home, the ones that start their work early so you as a tourist get your first cup of coffee or croissant in the hotel.

You see people entering establishments through side entrances. You see people sharing a cup of chai/coffee or a cigarette on the steps of their workplace before the drag of the day begins.
