Well!

After few months I am back to Cali, Colombia. After a long trip from Europe - Ljubljana we arrived to final destination for next 35 days - at least so long. The plane here was quite good - Air France is better then Lufthansa, you get more drinks....

Well, 26 hours on planes and airports you're littlle tired, but not for few more drinks, of course we (me and 4 other guys) have to said hello to hotel staff..., we also meet another friend wainting us at the hotel.

We went next day working (e.g. Saturday), finished a litlle earlier then usual - it was still our first day, we went to ChipiChapi. This is something interesting here in colombia, you came to shopping center where they have averything, shops, bars, restaurants, chicks,..., and of course finally packages of totally armed soulders, protecting everybody.

We again have a big steak, I can hardly eat it, and I am good eather, we went back by Avenida sexta. This is main street in Cali, where usually all fun happening, on a litlle higher level, went to our old bar called Douglas, drink few liters of vodka... well next

day wasnt so funny....

Weather is start to changing now. Last time were here more rain ( if you can call this litlle showers rain), but now the "raining season" is finished and we are now having beter weather - at morning 25 degrees Celsius, and during the day up to 38 deegres.

I have to said that I missed Colombia a little - not the danger ( holding gun on us....brrrrr), but I missed people, their friendless, quirosity, smily faces...

Today I went to so called "downtown". It actually old city center, now crossed with tiny streets full of shops, and that it is, only shops. It is like 20 x 20 streets, people laying goods down on streets in front of other shops, bargaing, try to convince you to bought something, but it's big pleasure just slowly walking down the streets, watching people and and enyoj in living...

OK.... write you soon... B
