We switched from the Art Deco shabby hotel Aragon today for the cozier Hostel Casu. It was a good switch. We went to the Gold Museum for most of the day. We took a break for lunch at the fabulous Quinoa and Amarinth restaurant and both had the vegetarian meal of the day. Three courses are not too bad, but it has yet to top the Girasole restaurant in Cartagena. We took a tour of one section of the gold museum with a guide then came back and wandered through th rest for about three hours. The craftsmanship of the tribes in Colombia is very advanced. They did a lot of molding using the lost wax method to create. If you want to make a figure out of gold make it out of wax and encase that in clay. Fire the clay, pour out the melted wax from your access hole and replace it with gold. There were many examples of sculptures made using this. It’s a great museum.
That looks like an amazing museum to visit. And what a beautiful little kitty cat!
