Mud Vulcano, Cartagena/Colombia
In the north of Colombia, two hours away from Cartagena lays a Volcano. Not a regular one with lava, sulphur and volcanic rocks b ut one filled with mud. This mud is supposedly healthy. The volcano is a cone-shaped hill, no higher than fifty foot. On the foot of the hill there are small shops selling the healthy mud in Coca-Cola bottles.
Especially the first seconds after getting into the mud are quite an experience. It feels like your weightless. You sink into the mud up to my chest. Much deeper is not possible.
Afterwards you can get cleaned in a nearby lake.

'Place Djemmaa el Fna'
One of the central squares of Marrakech is called 'Place Djemmaa el Fna'.
During daytime the square is filled with merchants. Around 8 o'clock in the evening the scene changes dramatically. . It looks like the square is on fire. Everywhere you look you can buy food and there are at least sixty places where you can buy freshly squeezed orange juice.
I order a delicious looking meal and drink a 'special coke' (red wine served in a coca cola bottle).

Stuart Highway is the grant highway, bringing the North- and Southside of Australia together.
Every night many kangaroos die on this highway. The kangaroos are atrachted by the warmth of the road. When resting they fall often prey to huge roadtrains
