After barely sleeping lastnight due to the freezing temperatures I was up early and ready for our bicycle ride. Unfortunately Erika didn't share my enthusiasm and it took her a few hours to get moving. At about 10:30am Erika's Dad fixed the bikes up and got us ready for our big Sunday bike ride- here in Bogota on Sundays they shut down one of the freeway lanes and open it up to cyclists, roller bladders and skateboarders. A brilliant idea and many people took adv...

Today I got up early did my exercises, yoga and chatted a bit with Erika's Dad. I then went for a bit of a walk around and through a bit of a rough area of Bogota. In the afternoon Erika and I took a bus into La Candalaria to see the old city. The bus system is a bit of a nightmare and I was very lucky Erika was there to help and guide me. The city is kind of at the base of a heap of very steep cliffs- one of which houses a beautiful church that I will go and vis...

Today I had a good sleep in and then waited for my host Erika to get back. It was a bit boring waiting around and seen as I don't have a key I couldn't go anywhere.

I arrived to cloudy Bogota, changed some money - and asked for my number by the first Colombian girl I talked too at the money exchange - I am going to like this country. I then spent the next two hours running around trying to g...

Today I was up at 5am doing my exercises and making the most of my last big American breakfast of muesli, flakes, peanut butter and Maple syrup - I havnt eaten so much Pranut butter of late but at Sean's there were 2 huge jars so have been making the most of it! I said goodbye to Sean's Mum who had been incredibly kind to me over last 3 days and then was driven to bus station. I said goodbye to Sean for now - being sure our paths will cross again in the not to di...
