Amazingly after going back and showering the spit off my neck, and getting ready to go meet up with my friend juan jose, barly an hour after the first time, i´m walking down the street and once again i feel a wet spot on my neck, touch my neck and Unfucking believably i was spit on again, This time i scream shane its happening again, Shane turns around and blocks the girl doing it this time, she tries to get around but he wont let her pass, i checked my pockets and still had my wallet with my FUCK YOU note in it as my money was now being stashed.
Not knowing what to do next we let the girl pass, she brazenly just went and sat down about a block away watching out response, seemly unphased, knowing that we wouldnt really have any claim as her attempt had been spoiled, shane grabed a kleanex off the ground and whiped the spit off my neck, and then propts to him, took the kleanex and shoved it in her face saying ¨gracias¨
Later juan jose, had told me i should have just grabed her screamed thief (ladrona) and chances are the people of a country eagar to clean its image as a dangerious place, would have probly had some vigilante justice.
Then juan took us to the museo de oro, and botero gallery, a really famous artist.
It was spectacular.
Afterwords we went for some beers in a safer upper class area.
Unfortuantly on the way home, our bus never stoped at our stop and suddenly we found ourselfs in the middle of know where and the bus system about to shut down for the night, in a panic i started asking everyone what bus goes to our destination, thankfully we had like 7 people helping us and we got on a bus, and were told to sit next to the driver and he would tell us when to get off, its situations like that were speaking spanish really save your ass.
Unfortunatly we had to get off one stop away from our stop by our hotel and walk as by then the buses had stoped runing, and i´ll tell you what, bogota at night is not a friendly place, its completly deserted excpet for homeless people, and man we stand out in the day never mind a couple gringos walking around at the night.
We got marked by one homeless guy collecting trash, and he kept insisting he´d walk us home, i told him repeatatly we had no money and i had already been robed 2 times, he didnt belive me, i think they just assume gringos always shit money (as theres not many gringos in bogota they just assume shit from american media)
Anyways i ended up getting pissed off at him tossing him like 50 cents in change and telling him to fuck off, and he did.
Shortly later we arrived at our hotel, in one piece, after one of the longest and shittiest days in my trip
Anyways Juan had invited us to stay at his place in a much safer and more secure area, so we will stay there tonight go out and try to have some fun, and then tomorrow morning we are off to medillin.
