We wandered without a map for most of the first day, letting the colours pull us from one street to the next.
In the evening, the old city walls fill with vendors selling fresh mango slices dusted with salt and chili, and musicians set up on every corner.
Watching the sunset from the ramparts, with the Caribbean turning gold behind the rooftops, is worth the whole trip on its own.
