“Zeer toeristisch. Veel mensen met veel verschillende touroperators op dezelfde plek. Catamaran, speedboten, kajaks door elkaar. We vertrokken 50 min te laat, maar wij stonden dus al 70 min te wachten. Daardoor werd er geraced naar de bestemming; geen enkele stop gemaakt om uit te stappen voor uitleg en foto’s van de zoutwinning, flamingo’s, pelikanen, landschap. Zeer korte ingestudeerde zinnen werden door de auto geroepen; slecht te verstaan. Het kayakken zelf was leuk, maar kort. Lunch zag er goed uit, maar koude gehaktballetjes etc hadden beetje warm moeten zijn of maak andere hapjes. Oesters waren lekker. Terug op geplande tijdstip omdat volgende tour moest beginnen, dus verloren tijd aan...”
