Your Colombian travels keep getting better and better!
Getsemani sounds exactly like the kind of suburb we like to stay in... and your blog is full of my favourite type of travel photos - animals, art and food! :)

Unfortunately That Was The Last Installment
We flew home after Cartagena :-( jeff will go to Kazan, Russia in August for another diving competition but I won't tag along due to limited vacation time. We get so little vacation time in the U.S. Sometimes I wish I had emigrated to Oz!
