Fiesta Flowers Parade I suppose in 10 years past it was , of a pompous grand scale nature parade.
But now ,Fiesta Flowers parade , a bunch on drunks , watching a bunch of drunks on horses. All interferring with the city trafficand people having to work that day.
Interesting for about 20-30 minutes , annoying the city for 5-6 hours.
I find the Sunday shutdown of street for bikes , in Bogota , a more fun and social event.

morphus says on Aug 2, 2007, 16:21: I don't think its Medellin. Just Parque Lleras. Thats where he spends most of his time. I would be complaining too. There are other parks. Parque Periodistica and Parque Bolivar are much better...no snobby peso rich Colombianos.

morphus says on Aug 2, 2007, 19:02: If he did'nt get shot down by rich those Paisa girls, maybe he would have a better opinion. Maybe he's too scared to leave Parque Lleras and look for a poor girl.

morphus says on Aug 2, 2007, 19:05: Why not just go for hookers? They look the same as the regular girls. The regular Paisa girls you'll meet most likely won't be virgins anyway.
