ROY AND LIZ MALLEN The Mallen’s Photo Galleries have been popular additions to www.cartagenainfo.net. and a big help in promoting Cartagena to the world. During their legally required 6 months visa departure from Colombia Roy, was kept busy responding to loads of E-mail from other sail boaters, Ham radio operators, tourists, Cartageneros, AND photographers. Now Roy and Liz Mallen are back in Cartagena, enjoying themselves, and taking pictures of: |

You read it right-busses. And with good reason. Busses are popular with Cartageneros and tourists alike. Their routes go everywhere, and a normal wait to “catch your bus” is usually no more than 4-5 minutes. Cartagena busses are unbelievably colorful. Each bus company has its own exterior color scheme using as many as 5 different colors. When it comes to bus interiors, each is totally different. Up front in the driver and dashboard area is a cockamamie colorful mixture of: textures, mirrors, custom tinted glass, swinging fuzzes, neon lights, sound systems, speakers, personal family photographs, etc. |
Meet Roy and Liz Mallen of Florida, and Cartagena, Colombia.
The Mallen´s are bluewater sail boaters.
Liz is an experienced and dedicated First Mate.
Roy is a Ham radio (N4GJH) operator.
In common, they share a love for Cartagena, Colombia.
These photographs were taken during their second six month visa
in Cartagena. Their time has expired
and so in compliance with a Law, which shoots Colombia in the economic foot,
they will leave once again for Florida.
However, they will be back!
Maybe, just maybe, the progressive government of President Uribe will have modernized the Visa Law, and people, from other countries, who can prove financial responsibility will be permitted to remain in Colombia indefinitely-as long as they obey the countries laws?
Roy, in his modesty, is quick to call himself an amateur
photographer. It has been said
that the collective works of a photographer, reveals the heart and soul.
If this is so, Roy has laid open his deep love for this great and historic
city. These extensive Photo Galleries
are a gift to the people of Cartagena, from the Mallens.
You can send these photographs to your family and friends.
Perhaps they will create some interest in visiting, investing, having elective
medical or dental surgery, or even retiring to this Romantic City on the Caribbean.
Like the Mallen´s, your lives will be enriched, and never the same!
The Mallen´s Photo Galleries appear in five groupings.
The first we simply call: CARTAGENA.
It´s full of color, architecture, parks, flowers, fruit, people, romance,
street scenes, nautical and night photographs-something for everybody to enjoy-that´s:
CARTAGENA.
The remaining four galleries relate to subjects that have appeared in many "coffee table books”: Doors, Windows, Balconies and Door Knockers.
