We arrived safely from Cartagena to some of the worst traffic I have even been in. This was worse than 580 after an accident. It turns out that during the holidays a few nights a month they close down a lot of the streets so pedestrians and bikers can have the run of the city. We eventually made it to Ricardo's parent’s house and were invited to dinner at his grandmothers. This was en enjoyable time and we met a lot of the family.
Yesterday we went to a crafters fair. This had crafts from all over Colombia and even a little from Peru. We didn't really get much but it was still fun to see all the native items. It also rained for a bit and oh my did it come down. This didn't last long but it sure dropped enough water to leave large puddles between the buildings.
We had some time in the afternoon so we just walked around and stumbled on a bowling alley. Rick won, by a lot, but it was still fun.
We spent a nice evening with dinner and walking around and then off to bed. Today we are going to do a little geoaching today and then we have a party tonight.
We leave tomorrow for our trip in the Amazon and not sure how much time we will have to make an update between now and when we get back to Livermore.
Hope all is well and the holiday shopping and festivities are going well.
See everyone soon
Jeanne and Rick
