Cartagena features prominently in BellSouth advert

In the BellSouth flyer that arrived in today's post here in Orlando for their "International Advantage at Home" a photo of Cartagena caught my eye. The photo is supposed to be a postcard from a family vacationing or possibly residing in Cartagena! It reads.

Hey dude,
What's up? Man, you should
come and spend some time
with us. We miss you. Here
in Cartagena, the weather is
so good! As a matter of fact,
I'm on my way to the beach.
I'm working on my tan.
Mom and Dad say hello and
invite you over ANYTIME.
As Colombians say:
"Mi casa es tu casa".

                      Robbie.

The other mock postcard is from Mexico and is written in Spanish. Good image boost for Colombia.

I'll fill you in on life thus far this year. I am working from a laptop that doesn't have my main E-mail addresses. I thought I had FTP'd the address book to this laptop but couldn't find it. Ciao.
