It's official: Going to Colombia for 2 weeks in May!

I'm so stoked. Now all I need to do is decide where I'm going. Since I'm planning to visit family in Barranquilla. I'll probably try to spend my time near the coast. I'm thinking fly into Cartagena, do Santa Marta, Tayrona, Barranquilla. Is this too much for two weeks. If I'm going to be in this area does anyone recommend any specific activities? Also, will I have time to visit Medellin?

I would say that you could do all of that if you really wanted to. For me, I always went to colombia for 1-2 months and found it very hard to get out of el Rodadero because I was partying too much, or on the beach, blah, blah....
