... up through Colombia at the end of my journey. I'm only heading onward quickly to Perú so that I have reason to come back to Colombia. Plus someone's telling me that Perú is cheaper, and that can't hurt at all. If I can't take a cheap flight from Perú to Colombia, then it only makes sense that by the half way point of my journey that I am at my furthest reach.

I had an amazing tamal earlier today and the juices that they have in these restaurants are ...

Was auch ganz witzig ist sind die Kuehe, die unmittelbar vor dem mega modernen Einkaufscenter grasen! :D

Viel Spass beim anschaun! Liebe Gruesse Toni

... imagine a Colombian drug Barron to live in. A massive house with a swimming pool and lots of land around it. We went on a guided tour(in English) and learned all about coffee. The coffee beans are green not brown! We also learned that ALL the good coffee is exported and the local people only get the rubbish left over. So if you want the best Colombian coffee don't go to Colombia go to Starbucks.

After Manizales we took our final bus ride in south America to Bogota ...

I have been on the bus for over 20 hours now and I just arrived into Bogota, Colombia. I was planning on staying in the city for a day or two before continuing north to Venezuela... but I have changed my mind and am doing something stupid! Just like in Lima, Peru I am thinking "I have been here and done that." I already ...

... anticipated Chivas Bud Fiesta. Everyone from the hostel, plus all of the staff´s friends, piled onto a vibrant, maybe even garish, wooden bus. With everyone aboard some pumping salsa music was put on and blue strobe lights flashed in that mobile disco. The bus part was great fun, but unfortunately the night lost momentum. I found myself once again frustated at the club when I couldn´t walk around and make friends with strangers, as is my wont. The next day again, I don´t think I ...

2) The Gold Museum was cool, as was the interesting Police museum (free private guide, Pablo Escobar´s stuff is there too). The demonstration in Plaza Bolivar was amusing, the city is nice, cosmopolitan and pretty safe. We never found ´Zona Industrial´ near Portal del Norte (it´s basically the place to buy untaxed western goods ...

... skjoente vi plutselig veldig godt hvorfor; det var Colombias desidert verste vei!!! Det kan nesten ikke kalles en vei, saa mange hull var det. Og det HUMPA!!! Noe ho med armen selvfoelgelig var veldig glad for... Etter en natt paa hotell dro vi til den arkeologiske parken, eller hva jeg skal kalle det. San Augustin er nemlig kjent for noen enorme steinfigurer som ligner litt paa de fra Paaskeoeya. Hele omraadet er et slags nekropolis, dvs ...

... gold chancel but we could get no pictures because they were about to have a service. Next to this was the Gold Museum, arguably the most important in the world with over 34,000 gold pieces from all the major pre Hispanic cultures in Columbia. It is a dazzling site; in addition they have some 20,000 other historic items. This one was also laid out wit English explanations and defiantly worth seeing. We turned off the main street here and started to walk ...

Meine Reise hat ja wie einige von euch b**eits wissen -gesundheitlich gesehen- ein wenig ungluecklich begonnen... Sowieso schon boesartig **kaeltet und nicht ganz fit habe ich meien letzten Abend in Zu**ich v**bracht, da ich am naechsten Tag in all** H**rgottsfrueh meinen Flug hatte.
