I'll be in Colombia Sunday night!

Well, I just wanted to take a moment to say "Thanks" to all of you who have shared your comments, advice, and knowledge with me.

I will put a plastic tie on my suitcase zippers.
I will make a copy of my passport and laminate it to carry with me at all times.
I will not carry cameras in sight at all times.
I will be prepared to pay a guard at an airport for his service.
I will not worry about the price of my ticket and enjoy myself.
I will most certainly be on the lookout for pre(post)pagos.
I will not wear white tube socks with shorts.
And, most of all, I will not try to smuggle cocaine back across the border on my return flight!!!

If time permits, I may post bits and pieces of my experiences while I'm there. I've got 28 days and my Colombiana amiga works so I'll be flying solo during the day. Thanks again, guys and gals.....

No, thanks I think I'll pass on that. Anyhow, Pereira is just one of the 3 or 4 cities I'll be visiting. I'm going to be busier than a long tail cat in a room full of rockers!!!
