Picking up the RV
In the morning I received a message from the shipping agent to meet at the office at 1030. Also I received the itemized bill for around $2000. At the office I met the two Chinese guys from the day before and two of the other team members. Also Nico, a French man driving down the pan American highway with his 2 kids and wife. 
I got my temporary import permit and insurance paperwork which they paid for. We all went back to the port and got our hard hats and high viz vests on and waited for our escort. We then drove our cars in single file line through the scanner and weigh scales and gave them our paperwork and received a receipt and drove through. One last check by the customs agent and we were through
. I handed by the hard hat and vest and the large webbing straps to the agent and went across the street to fill up gas. I wanted to fill up propane but their tanks require a magnetic key. The French man couldn't restart his car but I lent him my battery booster but then he said it started without it. He was hanging out for a couple days to sort out truck issues. One of his leaf spring suspension broke a couple days before and he wanted to get it repaired in Cartagena. Also he had to figure out the electrical problem. We exchanged info and I offered him my obd scanner if he needed it.

I checked out the RV and was pleased to find nothing disturbed. 
I unpacked some of the stuff I had locked away and set up starlink for Colombia because the starlink account I had before was only good for North America. The good news is that starlink in Colombia is half the price as home.
