Hi friends…im in beautiful Bogota .Colombia.. And it really is beutiful… What i can see of it tonight. I had a long foodless and tv less but productive flight down here and was met at the airport by my excellent host Rafael.. What a great guy.. He works in the CIO's office down here and builds solar houses on the side.. Very cool.. <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

He gave me a quick drive around the city and we stopped in a grocery store where i found some yummy falafel<\/p>\n

Even cooler..(sort of) rafael was kidnapped by guerrilla soldiers and held for 3 days about 11 years ago. His dad was held for 3 months.. He figures about 50 percent of his classmates had soemthing similar happen in their families… Thats all long gone.. But amazing to think about..<\/p>\n

He said it wasn't too bad except for the mosquitos and having to eat monkey meat <\/p>\n

Im looking forward to meeting folks ma\u00f1ana <\/p>\n

Right now i need to get some sleep<\/p>\n

Nite all, nite sam<\/p>\n
