More of Cali

In our previous trip to Colombia, we had traveled south to Cartagena--Cali was not included in that trip.  Even then we were excited to see the world south of Colombia--Cali was just a stopover between Bogota and places south.

More photos from the Cali walking tour.

Cali landmarks

I don't think we did much the day we reached Cali.  But next day, exploration began.

Who is that tall man?

Spotted a very tall man, as the bus left Bogota.  The last photo is overexposed but shows the typical rest stop arrangement.

Leaving Bogota, for Cali

Leaving Bogota.  Watching Bogota's TransMillenio (rapid transit system). Most developing countries are cash-strapped.  With their limited resources they use up the money on development of the Capital and big cities--that results in uneven development of the country, which in turn fuels the waves of urbanization and movement to big cities within the country.

On our way to Cali

The idea was to keep traveling south.  First Bogota to Cali, then Cali to Popoyan, and then continue south into Ecuador.

I have to check my records to find out where these photos were taken.
