Ciudad Perdida: Day 3

30 September 2011

After breakfast, at 7:30 we started our 3rd day trekking. This day, we would walk to the nearest camp to the Ciudad Perdida.
Today course was interesting. We walked along the river, climbing rocks, and finally we arrived in the river crossing using sliding cage. It was not frightening as it looked like though.
We arrived in the 3rd night camp about 1pm, there we could sleep on hammock or bed.
Despite of the bedbug rumours, I chose the bed, which seemed to be the good choise, because the next day, the hammock guys said it was damned cold in the hammock!
There was nothing to do other than playing cards or chatting with fellow travellers or siesta since the day was raining hard.
I played cards with fellow travellers. I introduced them thrilling game I used to play in Indonesia called "Changing Your Name".
During this trek, I learnt games like "Shit head" (my favourite) or "Ass hole", then "Take 2" from other travellers.
The Australians also played thrilling game, accompanied with screaming and laughters.
We kept playing cards, or chatting, until dinner time, another nice meal!
There was no electricity in the camp, only candles that night.
