Flight to Leticia My flight from Bogotá to Leticia was nice and they even let me bring my guitar in the cabin with me for no charge! What a difference from flying in America....."Sorry that's going to cost you 50 extra dollars"!!! Lol Flying into Leticia we had just a little cloud cover so was able to see the Amazon and the River pretty clearly. The humidity once they opened the plane door pretty much just slapped you right across the face! Jumped on a motorc...

Gold museum, book exchange, and Monserrate cable car! The gold museum in Bogota is supposed to be one of the nicest museums and all of South America and it was definitely very impressive. It was four floors and had some of the most amazing pieces of artwork I've ever seen!

Bogota bike tours and Boltero Museo Quite a few backpackers that I have met have recommended the Bogotá bike tour. Plus it's the #1 thing to do out of163 on trip advisor....

While on the tour I was told the famous Boltero museum was closed on Tuesdays and I had planned on going tomorrow which was a Tuesday..... So after the bike...

And with all the diving and cheating that I saw in the tournament if anything it's made me have less respect for the game!

Rio claro to Bogota......5 hours.......?!?and party bus! Right after breakfast I headed out to the highway and tried hitchhiking until a bus came along and picked me up! Again what was supposed to take around five hours took about 8 to get to Bogotá. I met some friends when I arrived who were going on a party bus so I joined them. Even though they took us to a very expensive bar, it was a cool place and a good night!
