Trip to Cojimies-March 17 2019 / La Mana March 19/20 2019

Sunday Julia planned a trip to the beach town of Cojimies which is about 133 k from Canoa
 This was a full day with stops along the way for photos and lunch at the beach....we checked out a beautiful gated community on the way back near Jama.......complete with tennis courts and an infinity pool over looking the ocean. Pictures will follow as soon as I can get them off the phone...having a technical problem.

Tuesday we took a trip to La Mana in the hills east of Canoa.
 we left close to noon arriving around 7 in the dark. We were greeted by the owner of the lodge who had become acquainted with Julia last year when she stayed at his lodge and ended up treating a number of friends for back problems. He wouldn't accept any money for our stay.
