Turned out to be a 21 hour overnight hitchhike....lol
Well after a great high-quality sleep...... We started driving again about 4:30 in the morning, and the drive from here to San Gil was absolutely amazing through Chicamocha national park! We ended up arriving in San Gil around mid day, and found the hostel, Macondo, with an actual hot Jacuzzi!!!
20 kms from San Gill was supposed to be the very impressive Juan Curi waterfall so we decided to check it out in the afternoon. When we got there the man made us wait, radioed the other guy, said we could go but the second it started to rain we had to get the heck out of there!
It was by far the most violent and possibly biggest waterfall I've ever seen! You could barely keep your eyes open when you're at the bottom of it, let alone sit there and try to enjoy it. Also it was freezing cold so we didn't last too long, plus Claire got bit on the butt by some mutant ant!
We went out to the road and said we would try hitchhiking until the bus came by, and the first car, a Colombian couple, who lived in America for the last couple years picked us up! They were just so happy to see two people brave enough to hitchhike in their country!
Obviously the nice hot Jacuzzi got used tonight.....
