Nachmittags haben wir dann eine Tour in einen Krokodil-Park mitgemacht! Und allein schon die Fahrt dorthin war die 15.000 Pesos wert! Es ging mit einem ziemlich alten, lauten, klapprigen Bus den Berg hoch, raus aus Melgar und rein in grünen Wald soweit man sehn kann! Unglaublich schön! Wir sind dann ein bisschen durch den Wald gelaufen und ham uns danach die Kaimane und Cocodrilos, was echt interessant war auch wenn ...

... He was a little indignant when I refused to part with $2mil pesos (about $1USD), which I after acclimatizing I now realise was too much. After chatting to the taxi driver for about 5 minutes in what spanish we could, he was really friendly and helpful by the way, we found that the luggage handlers (for want of a better word) had nothing to do with him and no taxi fare was agreed. We ended up negotiating our fare en-route for $27mil pesos, we were later told ...

Hola amigos queridos!
Greetings from Bogota, Colombia! I arrived yesterday morning around 5a.m. after three flights and about 16 hours of traveling (not bad really). My flights were fine, but I was fighting some illness and so, at times, it was unpleasant. (Nausea= loads of fun!) I took a taxi to my hostel and got a first glimpse of the deserted streets of Bogota. I was slightly shocked how quiet the streets were at 6a.m. but came to find out that yesterday was a bank ...

Seven and a half months without a job, and of all places I come to Bogota. I will probably never be able to afford to leave this place, but that´s not necessarily a bad thing. I had a panic stricken episode in Lima airport due to the hour delay on the hour long changeover but the emergency plan to bus from Peru to Colombia luckily never came to fruition as the second plane was also delayed. Ah, tiempo latino. My optimistic image of tropical ...

... when he suddenly decided he coundnt land and pulled right up and started climbing back to over 10000 feet. As we were a little nervous at this time, myself much more so than Steve, understanding what was being said on the overhead would have been nice, but unfortunately it was all in Spanish. Anyways, we stayed in there air for an extra 25 minutes until the decided to try it again. Luckily, this was a much better landing and we are in Quito now. Weather today was in the mid 20s

One of the lesser known facts about Colombia is that it is home to an incredible array of fruit many of which are unique to the country. A walk around any fruit market will show you what I mean, with all sorts of weird and wonderful looking fruits and a sea of colour ...

... the cusom here that after the presents and all that people start to party, drink and eat plenty! On Chrismas day they took me through to see the spectacular slat mines and salt cathedrals outside Bogota! Later that night we went through to a cousin of Maria's with a bunch of other cousins... 2 litres of Aguardiente ( sugarcane spirit) and 2 litres of Rum: We started out slow with a couple cocktails ...

... making, rather than making decisions based on the brainwashing we have received by our own design. Unlearning what we have been brainwashed, is the key. But we each have to do this individually, in our own ways... otherwise it is just another form of brainwashing. A better form, but a form of brainwashing nonetheless. A higher universal consciousness is the goal. Imagine how incredible our lives could be! Imagine the incredible power of a collective human search for awareness, and consciousness!
