Villa de Leyva
After reading your blog, I think that I need to go to this town. My husband and I are going to Bogota in August. We hadn't considered a side trip until we read your blog. I have a blog on this site too. Check out Everette's blog.

One of Us
I think that being Colombian is appreciating what this country and its culture are, you are now one of us. Colombia and its people will always welcome you back as one of its own. Thank you for keeping me entertained all these weeks, I've been vicariously travelling through you. Im now in the states. Best of luck on the rest of your journey. : )

I am glad
Dear Turists, I am glad everything worked out and hope that Yissel got her medicine on time. Your story kept on suspense until you found the cabana Costenita. My husband and I travel every other year to Colombia: Cartagena, El valle, Pereira, Quindio. We usually hired a driver from the town I am from (we agree on the cost, he pays for his own hotels and we paid for his food and tolls. We never travel during the evening. The only scarry situation we experienced was in Cartagena at the hotel Caribe when we were surrounded by the army all armed not pointing of us but blocking us with out explanation - my husband does not speak a word of spanish so you can imagine how he felt, one of the soldiers noticed him getting very nervous and they explained to us that the president was visiting the hotel. Colombia is beautiful! P.S. Very generous of you to take out the food and give it away.

Re: Caldas
Superb! Many thanks for the history lesson! Isn't the Internet a wonderful thing folks? Right now I'm sitting in a bar in a cold and rainy Quito - and very much missing the warm Colombian climate :-( Well, at least I'm in a bar, I suppose ;-) Chris

Caldas
Hi Chris, Caldas was a scientist, military, geographer, botanist, astronomer, naturalist, journalist and patriot of Colombia. For his erudition and vast knowledge of many subjects was known to his contemporaries as the Wise, epithet which has passed into history. He was born in Popayán and died in Bogotá. He help to free the country from the spaniards. You are right, in every single town in Latin America (at least in Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru y Bolivia) there is a plaza de Bolivar, for the guy that libertates this 5 countries (a single country by that time called La Gran Colombia) and whose political project Venezuela's president Hugo Chavez wants to continue on this days (in a very bad, misunderstood way.) Saludos!

@Stef
Hi Stef. Pleased you enjoyed the post. The hotel in Guatapé was Hotel Real (if I remember correctly). It was OK but really nothing special. There seems to be a good directory of hotels / cabins etc in the area here: http://guatape-antioquia.gov.co/nuestromunicipio.shtml?apc=m-r-2004663-2004663&m=r Hope you have a great time in Medellín (and Guatapé)! I'm sure that you will. Just don't forget the sunblock :) Chris

Hola
Give Matthew my brother a shout whilst you are in Quito. His email addy is matthewdownunder@hotmail.co.uk I think he misses speaking native English and he can tell you what's what. He seems to live in Pichincha which slightly disturbingly appears to be an active volcano. Anyway, hope all is going splendidly and enjoy the blogs!
