🇨🇴Día de la Independencia Colombia🇨🇴

July 20th, 2018

A great day with our Colombian family celebrating Colombia's Independence Day!

 On July 20th, 1810 Colombia got its independence from Spain by its liberator Simon Bolivar!

 We were all there last week on this special day with millions and millions of other very proud Colombians!  After a bus ride I think we walked 10 miles to the parade route! Fun times!

 After the parade our good friend Chelsea (and I) had what we think is some sort of hamburger?  She took 2 bites then threw it way... I ate all mine and lived to tell about it! 🤣

No - Tara was not picking her nose!

FLYING THROUGH THE AIR WITH THE GREATEST OF EASE!

 

 A-day trip with our Colombiana friends to the beautiful Chicaque National Park & the Cloud Forest!

 A great day as our good friend (and guide) Byron led us on a wonderful hiking adventure through the breath taking Cloud Forest south of Bogota! 

Myself, Tara, Jessica and our new friends/family - Kate, Jennifer, Ashley & Steve adventured through the rocky terrain of this area starting out at 8500' and dropping down to 5000' all the while taking in the beauty of the Colombian mountainside! 

 Walking up-and-down uneven rocks, through streams, and avoiding numerous piles of horse poo we all definitely got in a great workout!

 *After a delicious Colombian lunch we each ziplined through this magnificent place!

ANOTHER GREAT DAY IN COLOMBIA!
