COOKING AND BRAAAAPING AROUND THE WORLD: CATCHING UP- TIME WAITING IN CALI, COLOMBIA- ZOO

DAY 132-137

3/15-20/2012

        I spent this past week catching up with family on Skype, working out better and cheaper insurance (thank you HCC), Spanish, and working on Carnet. I also realized that someone nicked one of my bags off of my bike as I was organizing my stuff. I don’t think they were too happy when they realized it was just long underwear, but it sucks for me no more warm clothes. So I quickly called my brother in-law who is in the snowboard business and saved the day again for me. (Thanks Skinner) He sent me a Ninja suit under layer, a top/ bottom under layer, two warm socks, and glove liners. I walked all over Cali this week a few times. Nic came back to Cali this week and we have been hanging out figuring out fun routes down south. Nothing to crazy this past week, just waiting for packages and then it’s on like donkey Kong.

        We went to the Cali Zoo today.

                We caught a cheap taxi across town and paid a 6 dollar gate charge to get in. We walked around the 9 Hectare zoo. It was pretty rad some really cool animals, although I am pretty sure that 90% of the animals will die in the next year all very unhealthy. After a few hours we caught a taxi to another part of town for lunch. We went to a casino on a whim and I won 12 bucks on roulette. We walked back to hostel, stopping in a sticker shop for Nic he is making sticker for his website. I got a new Red bull sticker and Colombian flag.
