Bogota from on high

Bogota, Colombia

 

Yesterday we took the graffiti tour in the morning, then took refuge in the Botero Museum when the rain started in the afternoon. Hail and rivers running down the streets but by the time we left the museum the worst was over. Great museum, by the way!

 

 
 
 
 
 
Hail swept up in the Museum courtyard
 

 

Today, we took the funicular railway up Monserrate mountain, where spectacular views of the city were to be had. At this point, we had met up with a couple of other women who are going to be on our tour and they all voted to walk back down the mountain. After that, Sue and I just wandered around town and enjoyed the vibrant pace of this city. We stumbled upon a couple of interesting churches along the way.

This evening we will meet the rest of our tour group and find out just how much trouble I am in. So far, all we have met have been females - I'll probably end up having to carry these poor helpless girls everywhere.
