Last day in Bogota
Walked around the city and visited Plaza de Bolívar
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolívar_Square
and Gold Museum.
Walked from La Candeleria to Calle 70 which is like walking from Chinatown to 70 street, only that the blocks in Bogota is further away and the road is polluted from the public bus.
Met Vanesa for lunch. Vanesa had Ajiaco and I had Bandeja Paisa. Both are famous Colombian food
Bandeja Paisa
Public Phone in Bogota
Yes, you can’t carry gun on the bus
Northern Bogota is pretty different from the middle or southern party. The financial sector is at around calle 70
Stock Exchange
and the hip and happening place is at Calle 87 “Zona Rasa” area. There are many bodyguards around Zona Rasa area because the wealthy Bogotans here are afraid of being kidnapped.
Colombian style burger at their fast food joint
My flight to Santiago is at 9.40pm and I was a little late for my flight. Got into a cab and met a crazy driver. He mentioned about F1 racing, Pablo Montoya, fast and furious, go karting and drove like crazy
Warren!!!
I{m so impressed. You “killed” the Bandeja Paisa and left nearly nothing of it. Good!!
Remember el jugo de Lulo y de Curuba (the one I had).
I’m glad you could sightsee a lil bit in Bogota, however, you must come back.
TC…

No prob…any time.
Enjoy the ride
