Finally caught up...Colombia

As Ryan said, I really haven´t felt unsafe or in danger in Colombia. I actually really like it here. Our hotel looks out over a gorgeous plaza and there are always people out and about walking around. Everyone is usually dressed up here...men in suits and women in suits or at least wearing heels. Ryan and I have received many strange looks for wearing our Rainbows down the street.

Here are a few very random pictures from here...


All motorcyclists and their passengers wear this brightly colored vests here

Peeps asked if they have magic coffee here...that glass right there was filled with VERY magical and VERY strong layers of coffee. (Ryan was doing an impersonation when I took the picture)

So Ryan talks about the buses in Latin America all the time, but I only now realize just how many of them there are in the city. At any given time, there may be 10 buses on one street between two stoplights. This picture doesn´t do it justice.

That´s right folks...Dunkin Donuts has named one of its delights the Vanessa

And finally, Happy State of the Union!!! This is on the wall of a cafe here and I couldn´t help but take a picture as I was laughing.

With that name it HAS to be the best damn tasting doughnut in the world. You could buy one and decoupage it for your scrapbook to go with the picture (LOL). That could take a whole bottle of the stuff.

Loving/missing you lots!!
