| hiked out of tayrona the long way around via the pueblito and the far end of the park, this trek is out of this world,... felt like indiana jones... the trek up to the pueblito had gigantic stone plates to climb up on, we had to go through bat caves, and yumay even found a perfect place to play tarzan and swing across a river with one of those long plants... we voved to come back... |

| went to tayrona parque, quite possibly the most beautiful jungle park i have ever seen... this is what the pictures and movies of beaches look like... untouched and pristine... i had stomach issues so yumay carried the big pack (about 40lbs of water, food, clothing and lots of extra stuff for camping).... it was a great hike in seeing lots of birds, creatures and butterflies... the rest of the day we hiked around for several hours around the beaches, not log-able |

| La Ciclovia, Bogota closes off half of its roads to bikers, runners and skaters... super cool, wish the states did that in all the major cities... there must have been hundreds of thousands of people running, cycling and hiking about the city.... we took it really easy as the elevation still really shorted us of our breaths... but it was a great outing, we ran all teh way up north into the other city suburbs... |
