Final Thougts of Bogota

The time spent in Bogota with Valentina’s family was terrific. They are a close family and wonderfully friendly and hospitable; and I owe them for a great and comfortable time in Bogota. I wish my Spanish was better so I could communicate more with Valentina’s mother and father, but that shall happen next time. Valentina’s brother was great too—a friendly guy with a sharp wit. I was constantly asked if I had slept alright, if I wanted something to drink, or eat, or just if I was OK. It is comforting to know that there are people looking out for me as I drift into this new country. To Val and her family – thank you!

Milo made himself completely at home, and even went to a Bogota daycare to have a bath and a grooming session. And again, it amazes me how calm and easy going he has been with all the traveling and moving around. He watched me pack my things and kept a close eye on his bed. I started moving it around and packing it up and he began to bark and jump. He knew he was going somewhere and was excited about the possibility. Who knows where he thought he was going, but he was excited.

Until next time…an update of my arrival in Monteria.
