Capuranga, Day 1

Next morning at 6 am Bryan went to the ferry terminal to get the tickets for the boat to Capuranga as there is limited space on the boat. The trip was scheduled at 8:30 but of course there was a long delay. When I think about this 3 hour trip through the Golfo de Uruaba on the tiny boat with around 30 other people squeezed all together it makes me laugh. Even Lonely Planet book said that you can lose your teeth as it is very bumpy ride…. and oh God it was. We were literally flying above the water and then smashed into the waves and everyone was screaming it was scary but at the same time fun, full of adrenaline adventure that lasted what seamed forever. However we were glad we left dodgy Turbo as someone was shot 3 times at the ferry terminal just minutes after we have left. 
Capuranga on the other hand is beautiful, very laid back wee village, without cars only horses and it has really nice relaxed atmosphere that have more Jamaican feel with its African American community.
