well i went to that street festival outside my hotel..............i knew my 3 freinds that walked me home prev night would be there...and sure enough i scanned crowbd n found them.
they were sure happy to see me come walking up and many rounds of aquardiente followed. the concert was good live music and lots of salsa dancing of people all ages........even lil kids like 5-9 ish they were cute and danced quite well for being so young
i was amazed all around me like basically every group of people sitting together all had a bottle of something..............crazy yet i saw not a single fight or argument....musta been 300 - 400 people i think lots after concert we went to a bar and then they left so i cabbed to another bar and met 2 brothers and chatted with them
we shared a bottle of shots then gave me ride back to hotel which turned into a 2 hour drive around the city................they brought me to hotel then asked if i wanted to go for more beer so i figured they are well dressed and acting mature.......i only have about 8.00 on me and they won´t kill me for the sake of killing me.....and to rob me well i´d give my 8.00 up. it turned out to be fun.
we drove to another late night rest where they tried to give me a fake 5000 bill(2.50) of which the brothers both freaked out and made them change it........then we drove past a park and sat outside my hotel for about hour listening to music in there car finishing off the beers. a neighbor jioned us and i got the hugest compliment as she said u speak good spanish......well i can understand you
went to bed at 6:00 am as people were leaving hotel to start their day i ended mine. nice brothers i had good time!
next day got up no more concerts or festivals so luckily fate allowed me to leave
went back to steak house so this guy eating interesting looking meal so i ordered it costillo humando turns out it was deep freid chunks of pork.....reddish and size of golf balls approx. with fries n deep fried bannanas
it was so greasey i totaly was scare on the 12 hour bus ride i´d shit myself for sure....................but forced myself to go at bus stn and was okay on the ride..................sometimes i have awesome meals pouinting to what another person is eating, as i have no idea what 90 % of the menu is...........but this time i lost by ordering it............was so freakin greasy !
well i got to this city of 2 million plus medilin i hate it
i checked into hotel in area listed by my guidebook then walked around saw some beautiful churches n museum...............then came back at night to find hookers standing in doorway of hotel????????????? even noticed on side streets walking up to hotel were hookers n some even leaning out 2´nd story windows waving men to coem see them.
i said i was in love with girlfreind fo 5 yrs in canada but to no avail then finaly just left hotel as they kept trying to convince me and when i returned only one there sitting in lobby and she didn´t get up to hassle me again....hm guess this wasn´t best hotel but was many other guests staying there and 24 hr security and was clean....................just bad part of city period!
just went to room locked myself in and watched t.v. shaved and by 8:00 was sleeping as prev night had 12 bus ride n hardly slept
well i am going on 4 hour sightseeing tour of city in 1 1/2 hrs then leaving for another 12-14 hr bus ride to cartehena beautiful city surrounded by brick wall and spanish buildings and on the sea....................it will be hotter i hear though
i just hate big cities and lots of beggers and homleless people and bums everywhere here that see me from a mile away and come begging
well gotta run check out hotel and figure where to leave my bag at hotel or at tourist both plus decide if i should go to town a bit closer as i´ve been travelling pretty hard and totally ahead of schedule
well take care everyone!
