NO CAR DAY

Today February 5th, On the streets of Bogotá there cán´t be any particular cars. The people have to leave the cars at home from 6am until 7pm. On the streets one can only find cabs and buses. It is an incredible sight.

They also close some main roads on Sundays (I believe) for cars so pedestrians and bycicles can ride there. The same happens in Medellin every Sunday. Poor but snappy 0 funny, 0 helpful.
