After arriving in Santa Cruz we were shocked to realise that the town is pretty much shut on a sunday. After a taxi ride to Residential Bolivar we realised our reservation hadn´t been recieved but they had a double room (2 single beds) and could give us a matrimonial room the next day.

The main street really says it all with it being a small paved streeet with so...
